Question Need help with why car has no power in gears 1,2,3????

Hey guys, im back with another question...

Ive noticed lately that my 1.8t has no power in 1st 2nd and 3rd gear...its manual...it honestly feels like a possible boost problem bc i dont feel any pull whatsoever in any of those gears, i really only feel power and pull from the turbo in 4th and 5th gear....

When im at a stop, i put it in 1st gear and engine rpms rev up really fast but it really feels weak and no torque whatsoever, gets a little better as gears go up, then 4th gear around 3200 rpm i feel the power and also once im in 5th i feel power too....

As i mentioned i feel like it might be a turbo/boost issue but not sure....i also have a cel that reads incorrect secondary air flow?? Could these be related??? Or could it be a clutch issue, maybe the clutch is NOT holding good enough, but its not slipping...its original clutch/tranny, car has 112k miles....please if anyone has any insight let me know....thanks guys i appreciate it..
