It's the clutch trust us. You described it perfectly in you first post, RPM's shoot up under load and its not gaining speed then they'll drop back down again = Clutch Slip=Pay Up Sucka LOL

that is the beginning of the end of your clutch i promise you. mine did the same thing on it's way out. it is only slipping under load.

i was able to limp mine around for a month or so after that started happening but eventually it was slipping in all gears if i even thought about going into boost.

Dood, listen to what everyone is telling you. It's likely the clutch and, if it isn't, it's the best place to start your diagnosis.

But i do gain speed!! its like a quick burst of speed as it revs up really fast but the goes bak down and bak up again.. i dont lose speed in any gear...(ohh by the way i hate where i live cause theres like no mechanic that wants to work on it...i know 3 and they said that they rather not work on it)

Don't know how else we can tell you that your CLUTCH IS SLIPPING. Please make sure your bring the car to someone who knows what they are doing or your gonna ruin your "New Car" even more by having some half assed shop put your clutch in.
