Your sure it's not fuel related. My Z actually runs out of gas at 130 miles until empty. At first I didnt know why it was bogging at 135 miles till empty since it appeared to have gas. Then I thought fuel pump. When actually the reading is incorrect and I was actually out of gas or running low. Not sure we have the same issue but maybe u can check fuel flow

Oh, and I only had the Z for about 2 months when it happened.

LMBmikeZ · 12-05-2013, 08:54 PM

WTF! I would have panicked, has it happened since then?

I have never had my Z lag or bog down what so ever…….

simota1 · 12-06-2013, 03:49 PM

i think this was that same exact problem i had when i turned it into the dealer almost 2 years ago.... now it happened to me again..... i drove the car yesterday and it felt fine though?!? i did multiple WOT runs and no hesistation... freaking weird..... it did teach me one thing though DO NOT attempt a WOT when you are at a dead stop and the car is coming fast.....

Thankfully it hasn't happened since, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

is this one better than the sprintbooster?

Dunno...picked it up while I was purchasing TWM short shifter figuring WTH I'll give it a shot. Well it increased throttle response before and even after I installed other mods (pullies and UpRev Tune). So I would would say it's a GO ! Dunno know how it compares to other boxes. This one does work even after pully install and UpRev Tune. My initial thought was I would not need it after the tune, BUT it still increase throttle response after it.
