strange loss of power when passing 850

I picked up a 94 turbo wagon for my girlfriend's father last week and drove it cross country with no problems. except for one. when i put my foot down, at highway speeds to pass for example, the car accelerates as normal then bogs down then returns to accelerating then bogs down again. it alternates between these conditions until i let my foot off the gas a little. does anybody have any ideas? perhaps something to do with the turbo? leaks? vacuum? any input most appreciated. thanks brickboard. warren
