Can someone explain this? Driving around 40 on comfort so I'm I'm 8th, I floor it and the car felt like it died for a second.. Like it was about to go into limp mode.. Something with the turbo. Then it came back and switched gears

Traction control? That sounds like the "cutout" behavior of traction control...but just a guess.

It felt more like the turbo cutting out like in limp mode

I'm with the nerd... was it wet? Were you on a curve? Sand? Gravel? Can you replicate and watch for the tc indicator to come on?
