Do you have any scan tool #s? Does it feel like its getting knock or just down on power? Cant tell if its lack of fuel (or air), or maybe the alc is too high?

My guess would be a fuel issue. Maybe its not gettin enuff fuel on the big end. Have that pumped checked. How big are 009 injectors anyway?
