Odd Problem Still Continues 700 1989

1989 780

I am having a issue where when under medium boost i get a slipping type motion out of the car. i originally thought maybe it was a fuel delivery issue or turbo but no luck there. Basicly ( downhill any slope 1 degree or 12 degree ) under hard boost you can feel this slip like there isnt enough fuel, car kinda bucks lightly, now uphill same thing but happens at medium boost or higher car just doesnt want to keep going it will if you push the pedal harder and the turbo is assisting more at this point. here is what has been done to the car since i have owned it i do not know its history. IRS Rear End Converted To Shocks via IPD conversion kit. No Smoke From Rear. Tach Holds Steady During Issue. Express Yourself Here Im Getting Ticked I Cant Get This Car Perfect!!!
Bad Rear End? Bad Tranny? Turbo Hoses ( Seem Solid )? anything. See Below For Item's Tried Or Replaced!
