OK, Now i know this might sound weird and seem like there is a mechanical problem but i can honestly say it has only happened 3 times 1 being more recent.
When my exhaust was first installed, (HKS legamax mid pipe and Meisterschaft exhaust) as I'm driving it home i get on it a little bit not WOT but a decent amount. As i am accelerating through 2nd gear and shift into 3rd the car literally cuts power or so it seems and to describe the noise its as if someone placed a rubber plug in my exhaust not allowing any air to go through. It is impossible to describe in words, i have tried to capture it on video with no prevail, mostly because it never happens. I have noticed on the occasion that it has done this that as soon as I get off the throttle it immediately corrects it self and theres no problem. Now i have ran through every possible reason from, Engine temperature, to traction problems to (exhaust leak!) and found no definitive answer. Any ideas on what this could be? Best way i can think to describe this would be your blowing really hard through a straw and something is stuffed against the end to stop the flow then quickly removed. I am completely stumped, ANY help or thought would be greatly appreciated!
