[RESOLVED] Revving problem driving..

[EclipsexGsx]

Ok so here is the problem. Say I'm in 3rd gear and then i step on the gas all the way, the rpm would just go over 3000 and 4000 and then back to where its suppoes to be. and when that happens, the car feels like its not picking up speed. well its actually picking up speed really slowly. I was on the high way the other day and i was on 5th gear driving at around 65mph, i step on the gas all the way. i see it boosted on my stock boost gauge and at around 3/4 of the way the car just revved high without getting alot of power. it just at 2500 then all of a sudden goes up to 4000 real easy and back down to where it suppose to be like around 3000. Its hard to explain. Ill try to post a video if you guys don't get what i'm trying to say. But do you think its a boost leak problem or a turbo problem? or clutch? I'm also having an alternator problem too. brake and battery lights goes on. I just replaced my alternator. Though those two lights are flickering after the car warms up, the charging seems rite, around 14.0-14.3. and the battery is not dying. thanks. sorry for rightin an essay here >.<

CLutch slippage your clutch is getting hot and slipping. Is your clutch stock how many miles are on it? might be time for an upgrade

definitely clutch...
if your driving down the road slowly like 30 and shift into a higher gear than you need to be in say 4th or 5th and floor it and your car revs up instead of bogging down or wanting to stall then its most definitely your clutch.
