Default need help please....

I take my car into the shop to get it dyno tuned because it had been bogging a lot. I thought it was because i had messed with the vtec controller, but that wasnt it because i got it dyno tuned and the bogging still continues. The bogging is like pretty much all the time. IF i step on the gas it kinda goes away but still it bogs badly. I think my valve cover gasket is leaking oil... Can anyone please help me out and give me some ideas on what it could be?? injectors? anyone? please!

I had a similar problem, turned out to be the spark plugs. It was fouled and gapped wrong. Check to see if it's that.

they have a tendency to work themselves loose...it's underneath your throttle body...actually made on to it....there is a plate that is held on by 2 screws, loosen those, take them out and see if the valve inside is loose...if so tighten it
