Yep, it sounds like your clutch is slipping.
Does it do it more in the higher gears (4th, 5th)?

If its the stock clutch, its a garbage clutch anyway. Both of my 7s had stock when i got them and they were both pitifull. Thats the one upgrade im gonna have to get for my new turbo2 before i paint it.
