Exclamation Car stalls on turns?

Whenever i take a hard or semi hard left turn my car shuts off.. Also when i try to get on it it feels like i have no boost at times....other times it blows dark smoke and a huge firball out the exhaust. Is it a blown turbo or something else please help....
Thanks
Walt

You might think about removing the CAI - Bet when taking that off, you get better performance!
