What RPM range is it bogging down in? Have you done a compression check recently? What modifications do you have?

yes I have the same problem......I've read up on it and it seems alot of other gsr's have this problem. Does it bog everytime you drive it , or just every once n awhile? My car only does it sometimes and it will bog from 1000-3000rpm.

I've bogged before in that RPM range, but only because I didn't launch correctly. Letting off the clutch too soon with not enough gas will cause you to bog down. Try adjusting your clutch engagement/accelerator usage to a little bit more on the gas as your letting off the clutch.

Since I installed an AEM CAI I have noticed that my car will bog in first from a dead stop till about 3500 RPM. This is the only mod (performance wise) to my car at the moment and the bogging only seems to happen on very hot, very humid days. On cooler days I do not have this issue...I think it has to do with the hot air sitting in the CAI when the car is at rest and the motor is only idling and it goes away once the thicker air is flushed out. I could be wrong though.

Thats EXACTLY what happens to me, and thats also what i think it is. Heat soak. Because it holy happens on hot and/or humid days. Oh and Drumsy, I dont think hes talking about launching. Just starting off on first .

The hot air would make sense. Your starting from a stand still with no air circulation in your engine compartment. Your filter sucks in the stagnant air currently in the compartment, which is less dense, then as you start moving, cooler air begans to circulate in the compartment, and viola, you're back on power!
