car started boging out today!

i was on a trip today and my car started to bog out big time. everytime i tried to get on it alittle bit it wouldnt go anywhere and would just stumble and it is still doing it. it drives fine as reg. driving but as soon as you get on it, it happens. the boost still goes up to normal 14 to 15 psi. I guess its really time for the trip to the dealer now! and get my clutch fixed. damn i just want my car to be normal i love the Red honey!!

What does it mean when a car is boging out?

Mine did the very same thing on a trip I just took, I slowed down to keep from running over a rubber necker, and as I hit the gas to go around them it sputtered and bogged down I let off of it and then eased down on it, and it ran fine. Next morning I filled it up with gas and drove it home 200 miles and it never missed or sputtered one time.

So what's the update on the clutch? I might need to get the clutch fixed too. In the mornings I hear a loud noise for about 2 minutes and the clutch has to be pressed almost all the way down in order to shift and it feels very soft.
