Default CRX jerking during acceleration around corners

So I just noticed over the past few days that my 1990 CRX Si is having trouble making sharp turns in second gear while accelerating. For instance, I will be waiting to turn left at a stoplight, and then once I get into second gear around 4000 RPM it starts to buck, almost like I let up really quickly on the gas and then nailed it again. The issue doesnt seem to happen when I am going in a straight line.

It is up to date on most maintenance I can think of. I had to do a lot of work to get it running after i bought it 2 years ago, so almost everything is new or tuned. The tranny fluid was replaced about 10-15 thousand miles ago. Its only issue is burning oil. Could oil be leaking into the cylinders or something?
