when i hit the gas I here the turbo spools up and then the car wants to move but it does but not the way it should. It short of just stumbles when i hit the gas kind of like torque steer but with out the torque. like today for example i hear the turbo spool all the way up and its like something is holding it back. .what is happening? anything would help.

Most likely a boost leak, go over all you connections and make sure they are tight.

when you say connections what do you mean? can you be a bit more specific?, thanks

What he means is vacume hoses, all the little black hoses in the car are vacume hoses. Check them to make sure they are all connected and dont have any holes. Any easier way would to make a vacume tester.

Also, how old are you plugs and plug wires?
What kind are you using and what are the plugs gapped to?

Good luck
