Need Help!

Well basically i'm out of ideas on WTF could be wrong.

Heres my problem.

Anytime i'm shifting out of 1st gear at a high RPM (I normally shift at 6k), My car decides to bog out. As soon as I depress the clutch and it goes into second gear I hear a series of broken up misfires. (No I don't mean the ones you get from NLS) The car just tries to die basically, but as soon as thats over with I shift fine through the rest of the gears.

I threw the P0089 Code the other day, but it was doing this before that.

Anybody have any idea as to what could be going on?

I'm still under warranty so no problem if something needs fixed. I just want to know what could be wrong before I take it to the dealer so that they don't keep my car for forever.

bump

Nope. Fully letting up on the gas, suppressing the clutch, move to 2nd, depress the clutch and then it does this.

and yes they are haha, Even though its the same kind of tires I had on for 2 weeks when I wrecked my SS/SC

No no no haha, i'm talking about driving WOT, speed shifting haha

No just normal driving I shift at 2500 RPM and have no problems.

It does this worse when i'm in Comp Mode to for some reason.

haha i should have knew but when u put normally shift at 6k i was thinking normal driving haha, **** u always ready to race haha

but no hmmm me not sure, check air filter
if another turbo guy doesnt help have the dealer look at it, and just time them what happens and include all the details as it will make it easier for their little brains to understand haha

Edit: the answer sounds right above haha

I'm not trying to NLS, I don't even use my NLS haha, unless i'm at the track. I guess it really could be a false NLS though, maybe i'm shifting to fast? haha

the code is a for fuel preassure, there's been some bad highpressure pumps, also our gages are slow and lag a bit so you might hit the limiter but it shouldn't bog. I always drive in comp. mode I hate the traction control settings they step in way to soon and for too long.

Fuel pump or spark plugs, then. You say you're shifting at 6K, but our tachs lag behind a little.
