Default Please Help!!!!!!!!!

Ok i need as much input on this as i can because it is gonna eat my track times alive if i cant figure it out. Some of you may think i am making this up but I swear to it ,its legit.

Ok here is whats goin on. I take off in first and paddle the throttle to catch traction, i shift hard into second and it of course spins and i eventually catch being WOT. Once i get the RPMS up to about 6300-6500 in second i shift hard into to third just as i did from 1st to second. The difference this time is that it boggs down. I keep on the gas and approximately in two seconds it stops bogging and again runs like a bat out of hell. It reacts like the traction control is kicking in but it is off and obviously not engaging in first and second. If i do not shift hard, still wide open throttle, and give it approx a second between 2-3 it usually doesnt do this but if i ever power shift (still granny shifting lifting the throttle) it always boggs. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS!?!?!?!

the most baffling thing is i dont know why it would not do this from 1st to second. It boggs from 2-3 and 3-4. not sure about after that yet but that is enough to affect my times by a full second.

Please help me with this if you have had any simular problems or are an expert tuner/mechanic or just anyone who can help me figure out what i nthe world is wrong!

p.s. my mods are in my sig below

Default fuel pump

Sounds like a fuel starvation thing to me. The hard shift is pulling fuel away from the pickup maybe.

Still, definitely not for this forum.

If the ignition is dying it can do weird **** like that, I would also suspect fuel first though. I would just start with ignition/fuel systems first to rule them out if they are ok. Thats quick and simple to do.
