Default Car cuts out round bend

theres a particular good roundabout near me, this is what happens.

im in lane to go straight on, straight on is a slight left bend, i pull off in 1st,half throttle, then full throttle it as i approach the exit,slight left,as i hit the redline change to 2nd gear just as im going round slight left bend and it dies,blaaaaaaaaaaaaagghhh as i put my foot down to accelerate in 2nd,this causes me to clutch in,then car is normal again.

weird.

it doesnt cut out, just as i accelerate into 2nd from 1st gear redline its as if i have turned igntiion off,yet if i clutch in it idles.

MY95 WRX,standard air intake bar exhaust system.

no toher running probs

Best to keep it above half a tank, when you go round a bend the fuel moves to 1 side and the ecu thinks the tanks empty and knocks you off boost 2 avoid running the engine lean
It was a design fault i am lead to believe
