could be turbo surge?
how much boost are you running? how steep of a hill? How fast? What gear (rpm)? how heavy of a trailer?

i'm not sure on the boost, it was a pretty steep and long hill, i was running about 70 in 6th gear and the trailer is a 6 x 10 utility trailer full of tools, i don't know the weight of it. shouldn't be that much weight. i've looked up turbo surge and it seems like the same symptoms. how big of a fix is that?

$300 for a set of gauges first, $100 for a wicked wheel
