Default need help eclipse lagging!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

hello, i have a 95 eclipse gsx... lately my car will SOMETIMES not all of the time have an extreme loss in power. sometimes, it will run great...my first thought was my turbo charger, but i installed an actual boost gauge and im building pressure fine it holds it fine and when i let off it still does the phsssttt sound, check engine light is NOT on. it almost feels as if my turbo is spooling, but not injecting... PLEASE HELP!!! thank you.....

What do you mean? Does the RPMs go up along with the boost pressure or does the RPMs go up by itself? Your boost gauge will tell you if the turbo is spooling or not. Now, if you mean that your RPMs go up but you're not moving any faster, then perhaps your clutch is slipping or your torque converter needs to be changed or even fluid.
Can you clarify this first, otherwise you'll get the common response of "do a boost leak test" as I, and others in here, will tell you.
