Default Bogging! Oh no!

I have an 84' crossfire, just replaced cap rotor spark plugs and wires, air filter and had the injectors checked but when i stomp on it... it bogs! when i'm going about 20 and step on it to the floor it will bog or when i take it sideways for some reason it will bog... and it bogs until i take my foot off the gas and hit it again. what could be causing this? also i was wondering if there was a chip that you could buy to free up some horse with the crossfires? and one more thing yes one more thing... it is an automatic but i was wondering if som1 made a shift kit for it? and how much that would run me... thank you, jeremy

When was the last time you changed the fuel filter?
Just asking as it sounds like a fuel delivery issue.

Filter is the cheapest thing to change and is good maintenance anyway.

Don't think it's the pump 'cause usually they either work or don't.
And if it doesn't, it wouldn't be running.

Do you have an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator?

Do you have a full tank of gas?

Also sounds like bad gas, might try some dry gas.

It appears this problem just showed up after you worked on it. Chances are good that you left something disconnected or bumped and disconnected something else. Are there any codes present?

RACE ON!!!
