ok i reinstall my vortech flashed the tune on it
car was driving and idling fine

toke it for a nice hard run then the car starts to fell as if its boging under load below 3k just before the blower kicks in

no idea why its doing this there are no vacum leaks that i can see every thing is install correctly there are no oil leaks

another example from a light if you give it gas as if your tring to spin tires the car bogs bad when the pedal is pressed rpms ever raise slow

i was thinking it was the clutch but the motor is not spinning freely its almost as if its resisting accleration

Probably fouled the plugs. Pull them out and have a looksey, my bet is they are wet. Most likely the tune was so rich it saturated the plugs with gas. Also, might wanna check coil packs if the plugs look ok.

Also, depending on your setup (is it just stock vortech setup, or custom-ish?) you could be backwashing the maf (I've had that problem with my intercooled setup), also how did you mount the IAT sensor, you might have a leak there or have blown it out.

Check the mass air meter. There may be something on it causing some problems. I'd also check the plugs and see what they look like.
