Default MINI ME BOGGING?!

just did a mini me and everything starts and works fine but its throwing a CEL and also bogs all the way pass 3k rpm and after that feels like the engine cant push enough power to accelerate. Friends are suggesting that it can be that the timing belt is off...but.IDK?! need help!

Can't help you until you pull a proper code.

Yeah could be a laundry list of thing but it'll really help to list the setup, make/model/year/engine/ECU/mods/maintenance/etc.

Click on the link I posted. If the CEL is lit up then it's throwing a CEL.

And you might just want to list what car and engine we are actually talking about and what parts you used for this "swap".

Vid doesn't tell me jack. Only the code will. And it makes no sense to do a mini-me only to put the Y7 intake manifold back on the car.

Fix the CEL, then set your ignition and mechanical timing.
