I am experiencing and issue when I turn this happens no matter which way I turn and it is not everytime. My engine seems to be bogging down or shifting to a higher gear I cant tell which its doing but then when I straighten up all of a sudden the car picks up again. I can't seem to think of what would cause this is it the Throttle position sensor or tranny sensor? Any ideas would be great. Thanks,

Could be your steering pump is going? when you turn it works, and if it isn't working it could be causing the other systems running off that belt some grief? Do you have enough steering fluid?
I don't know how to diagnose steering pumps though.... google it?

Power steering fluid level is good I just changed it in october/november something like that. I think instead of worrying and wondering what if's and wasting time I will just wait to see what dies when it gets worse. Then I know I will have the culprit I hope. Thanks for the input.

check your IAC Idle air control sensor.

Well I hope you figure it out without doing any damage :P
It's a long shot, but does it do it more often when your fuel is low? or lower? Do you get it more in hard turns, or does it not matter? If it has a tendency to happen with hard turns or low fuel levels, it could, might, maybe be a weak fuel pump.
The other option would be something to do with a sensor or wiring maybe? Do you have any loose wiring that might rub or brush against other components in a turn?
Sorry I'm not more help, I've only ever worked on two cars, a lemon of a sunbird on which I lost at least half the bolts, and my current GTP, on which I have only managed to misthread one or two bolts. Aheh.

It could be a sensor. I think there is a sensor that tells the computer when the wheel is being turned so the computer can increase the power to compensate for the extra load on the engine. But that is more of a function at idle, not sure if it would do that when driving at a reasonable speed.
