Hey people i was just wondering what is wrong with my turbo. When i start to drive my car; the turbo start to lag about 3000 to 4000 rev and then the needle start to bounce back. some time it hard to change gear?

1. Could it be the gearbox?

2.Turbo?

3. Lose hose?

4. Service the car?

What do you think people?

Going to need a little more information bud.

Do you mean you don't get any boost till 3-4k? Is your factory bopost gauge reading positive pressure? is your car stock? mods?

Having recently experienced clutch slip in my R33 (to the point where it would no longer drive) this is exactly what would happen.

Foot goes down. Boost increases and car accelerates. Revs start flying up but car goes no faster, resulting in boost loss. Clutch starts to grab again. Revs drop as clutch re-engages. Boost comes back on and car pulls to redline without slipping. This happened every time until the clutch no longer worked at all. I didn't even make it home that afternoon.

You will know it's the clutch if the problem is worse in higher gears. Try it out.
