Default Turbo lag??

At about 10 seconds into video I put my foot down in 3rd gear, not high revs but when turbo kicks in you'll see it sort of drops off and goes back on again. Either turbo or clutch I think. ???

When it's at warmest temp it tends to be ok. Gotta be clutch surely!! Turbo seems to spool up nicely. Cheers matey.

Fill the car with bodies, find a hill, and floor it in top gear...

As the clutch fails it will do it in successively lower gears till it dies.

Surely the revs would go higher rather than drop if the clutch is slipping?
