Even more strange is it only happens WOT, if instead I slowly accelerate all the way to 6.5k rpm it feels fine... Doesn't happen when parked and revved up either...

The charge-pipe seems to be properly attached to the throttle body and no CEL so far... I wonder if the CP maybe cracked somewhere or even worse something happened to the tranny/clutch/diff...

Any ideas what could be wrong??? Going in for service Monday morning anyway... I am terrified!!!
those were my symptoms when my clutch went out. I heard its from the cdv at wot. I am currently contemplating removing the cdv altogether if I can get someone to confirm that the cdv does cause clutch slip at wot.
