B16 Bogging when I goose it
When I am driving in 3-4-5 gear at low to mid rpm and I suddenly increase load the engine boggs for a second or two before it starts picking up. Sometimes it randomly breaks up a little in the higher rpms.
I checked my TPS and my MAP and they are fine.
Does this sound like a fuel or spark issue?

I got a chance to look at it today and I decided to test the voltage at the TPS.
It should read .5 volts when closed and 4.5 volts at WOT.
My readings were reversed so I thought maybe there was a typo in my research. I would see 4.5 volts closed and .5 volts at WOT. So i figured out that my power and ground for the TPS were backwards and that fixed my problem. I did not have a CEL and the car ran really well so I thought that was weird.
for further clarification

I have a PW0 ecu.
Much better now! I cant believe the polarity was backwards - that means when i was at WOT the ecu thought the throttle body was closed.
I just thought it was really strange because I had no cell and the car drove fine otherwise.
