Need Help! My evo is acting up. =/
So like the title says I am in need of some help ladies and gents. My problem seems to imitate the feeling of when one of those damn IC pipes pops off mixed with a slipping clutch. (can't be the clutch I just had it replaced.) When I get on the throttle the car will rev up but I wont feel anywhere near as much pull as I should (clutch slip feel). It really is noticeable when im on the freeway and trying to accelerate from 60mph.
I have taken my bumper off and checked my upper and lower ic pipes but they are all connected.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try holding the brake a little and keeping the car at a certain speed while giving it more and more throttle. If the rpm's increase your clutch is slipping...and pretty bad at that.
The factory throttle body shaft seals leak like *****, so if it's a boost leak I'm putting my money on that.

Well I finally had time to fully check out my car today and it turns out that the rubber/silicone connector for my lower intercooler pipe had been ripped through from what I guess must have been the boost. by the way there was a some black sludge up against the inside of the connecter... any ideas? is that ok?

If there is no CES Begin with the obvious like :
-Inspect J-pipe seals
-the j-pipe nipple(its self to see if its broken) from j-pipe to solenoid
-Inspect hoses for puncture.
-make sure your divertor/bov is installed correctly.
Than have the clutch inspected, my guess would be the clutch, though.
