maybe a sensor? i got headers and an exaust and no convertor or anythin just pure smoke and the sensors are suppose to regulate somthing. also wen im at a light and rev the motor to 5500 i can feel the car boggling too. ive yet to check the fuel filter cus i dont know were its at.

when the check engine light comes on get it scanned at an autoparts store, they will usually do it for free. Then tell us what the code is.

So maybe the intake is getting too much hot air from the engine. Is it short ram or cai. You could put a shield on the short ram to block the hot air if thats what you have
