Could this be ign. switch related?At times my car won't go over 3000 rpm kinda carrys on but won't go past it.If I shut the car off and restart it it's fine.it does this hot or cold.but only once in a while.I have no codes except fuel pump and egr and I know about them.This wasn't noticable untill I installed the t-5.I switched computers A9p to A9l and back again both do it.
Anybody ever run in to this?I'm going out shotly to check some things.

It's alot more noticable in gear.It's not real smooth out of gear either but will go over the 3000 rpm.Of course today it won't do it.
