car bogs at 4-5k help!

So when i accelerate hard around 4-5k the car seems to bog twice.
In 1st when turning into traffic it did it and in 4th on the highway it does it.

Could this maybe be my clutch slipping? I can't smell any burning afterwards tho.

No tune just a cat back and turbo inlet pipe stock boost. Did yours do it all the time tho? cus these seems to do it all the time under heavy acceleration. the car kinda jerks twice and keeps going.

Yeah it did it every time I got on it. A tune should help smooth everything out.

Same jerk and everything? what mods did you have?

Im far off from a tune i didn't think just a catback would effect the stock tune like that.

i have far too many mods. tbe, BOV, COP, TME 6.5 turbo (that just blew up on me yesterday), boost at 24 psi. I could be wrong. How many miles are on your plugs? they could be blowing out. i replace with copper plugs every oil change. not sure about the plug options on a X

I run copper plugs in my car. They are better conductors but foul a lot easier. At 36kleast miles on the plugs I would start there.
