yesterday i raced my friends GSR and he just barely beat me becouse of my boost leak. Off the line the car pulled really hard. harder then normal it felt nice. Then on the way to work this morning it was nice and cold out side and i floored it in 4th gear and my boost kicked in faster then it usealy does. I usaly wont see full boost till near 5.5k rpm in 4th due to the leak any way i reach full boost by 4.5k rpm or 4.7 around there. When i hit about 8-9 pounds i heard my car rev faster and i looked at the tach and the rpms rose pretty fast then it stoped and started to go back down like it was sliping then it cought. I did it twice just to make sure i was seeing what i thought i was. It doesn't do it in 1st 2nd or 3rd that i notice, only in 4th. I didn't want to try it in 5th. Do you guys think it might be the clutch or somthing else?:confused:
 
i just got back from lunch and it seems like the clutch slips inth and th gear only. 3rd gear still pulls hard with no signs of sliping.
