Default Acceleration cuts out around corners?

Hey guys

I've had this happen a few times now. I'll be taking a corner a little harder then normal( nothing to crazy) and I'll get on the accelerator as I'm coming out of the turn and my accelerator will cut out and start decelerating like I've downshifted for a second or 2, then it will come back and act normally.

Anyone have any ideas. I've had it to the dealership a few times but they cant recreate the problem. It just had new turbos installed less then 1k ago.

My peddle position isnt changing. But the cars acting like I'm hard on, completely off, then hard on again all in 1-2 seconds.

It seems to happen more when the engines cool. But have had it happen at normal operating temps.

I know it's not much to go on but anything will help. Thanks guys!

Does it do it all of the drive select modes or just comfort/auto? I have noticed mine will allow more 'slip' when I am in dynamic or have the transmission in sport vice efficiency or auto. You can definitely tell the engine cuts torque when the TCS/ESP kicks in.
