Mine did exactly the same. The MAF sensor was nackered. As soon as I replaced it, it was right as rain. Make sure you buy a genuine one though, the cheap ones on ebay are useless.
If you know someone with a Nanocom, you can check it with that, just to be certain.

Could it just be turbo lag? If you rev it up a bit more when engaging the clutch is it better?

Got the same sort of problem, it accelerates ok up to a point then seems to lack power. If i continue to try and push it i get a bit of vibration as if the engine is lacking fuel maybe ? Going to check the fuel filter and maf sensor when i get a chance and probably the ecu connector.
maf, mass air flow?
I was wondering if I could be anything to do with me snorkel because it feels like intake buzz when it lurches
