Default loss of power

Hey guys,

When ever I punch it from a dead stop the car goes great through 1st and 2nd gear... when it makes it out 2nd gear into 3rd gear the car starts to have waves of power through the gear. I know i have an exhaust leak and need to get the exhaust reput on. What else could the issue be? Torque converter issue? Boost leak? Please let me know what you guys think.

Thanks ahead of time

sam

might be a boost leak, check your tbb for any rips because they are known to tear, you wont be able to see them so u might have to take it off

the car runs normal through first and 2nd gear and when you hit 3rd it starts to almost limp in and out.... I am thinking it isn't a boost leak because you would feel it through 1st and 2nd gear aswell.

Thanks again
