hey guys quick question. I've noticed that sometimes when im driving my ep and am in 4th gear and the turbo spools up it acts almost like to goes to neutral and revs up to high rpms and then catches back in. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem? The transmission has about 140,000 miles on it and has a "newer" clutch. I was told that it might be the syncro going out( if so does that mean a rebuild?). If anyone could shed some light on the situation it would be very appreciated. I can also post up a video to show what its like if needed.

that sounds like a slipping clutch to me? but that's just my 2 cents

slipping clutch. how "new" is it?
which clutch is it?
what engine/turbo are you using?
how much power are you making?
