Default Engine Lag?

i didnt know what you call this.. but anyway

when i shift from 1st to 2nd fast, and i go to 6k rpms in 1st. when i get into 2nd at first it feels like the engine is holding back then it starts to go fast. it happens the most coming out of a turn from a complete stop. any ideas on whats going on? could it just be from shifting in a turn?

1999 2.8 30v
106.5k miles
stock non-sport suspention and i still have studdless snow tires on...

I would say boost leak, but on a 2,8 I am not sure what it could be

This is a Starndard
In 1st gear put a load on the engine with no gas it should stall rightway
then try it in a higher gear to see if the is to much slippage in the clucth plate and pressure plate
the fingers get weak and you dont get a strong holding effect and it seems like its slipping
