I don't know much about OBDII motors, but I'll try and point a few things I would definately make sure to check. Are you using the d16y8 ECU? Throwing any CELs? Does your car bog when its cold or it doesn't matter on the temp?

I'm assuming it shouldn't. When I swapped my z6 the TPS sensor was broken and I didn't know how to calibrate a new one so I just took my throttle body off of my dx motor and its always ran fine. No bogs etc. But you know I did remember here on H-T couple guys were having bog issues and it turned out to be there coolant temp sensor
