well i know i had something similar with the 1G where it would miss at about 3500 getting into boost. It ended up being the Plugs.

ok thanks for suggestions but ok some more info its a 7mgte and i dont have any wiring problems it was runnning then i replaced head gasket then i put it back together and it does this now.but it is like the car does go anywhere when u step on it but if u don't let it go into boost it will pick up and go somewhat also there are not any vac leaks and i also just put new plugs in but i am gonna check tomorrow. i also have have a little crack on the intake hose on the turbo but it doesn't seem like it leaks. My friends car is actually doing the same exact thing also.
