My 958.2 GTS is having an issue - Under heavy acceleration it pulls hard until the revs reach about 3500-4000 and then I feel a distinct loss of power or hesitation. It keeps revving after that but the power doesn't seem to be there.
My car has a Tiptronic of course, but when it happens it feels almost like the clutch is slipping, if it was a manual car. I notice it mostly in 3rd and 4th gear.
Could this be the dreaded transfer case issue I've heard so much about?
Power Loss/Hesitation Under Acceleration
Check to see if it's developing turbo boost at the time it's showing symptoms. There was an issue with computer/DME programming that would withhold boost under specific conditions. IF that's the problem, a DME update at a dealer might resolve the issue.

It was the factory blow off (diverter) valves. I replaced them with EVOMS diverter vales at Flat 6 Motorsports and the boost stays on longer and she goes like hell.
