This bogging is normal for this car and it sucks. What intakes do you have? High oil temps, HAI's and heatsoak cause this problem. I have the same issue. When I am 200+ oil temps its BOG CITY. I have to launch at 3.5K RPMs and floor it to avoid cars like Honda CR-V's passing me at a stop light! And no we are not racing.

Here is a HOT day, almost 90 and some heatsoak with the car sitting idle for a few minutes after a commute home:

This is why the car bogs.
