accelerating after stop
after i come to a stop and begin to accelerate gently everything is ok untill i hit the gas just a little bit more then normal (just enoought to keep it in the same gear) and the car twiches and then starts accelerating... it feels like the engine cuts out for a split second. after that everything is ok untill i stop and begin to accelerate again.... i went and told the dealer they couldnt figure it out, could it be the superchargers clutch???

that's exactly what it is. you can actually feel it in all gears but 1st is going to be the most pronounced for obvious reasons.

With a drag of about 100hp, it is a buck for sure.
