she got slow and is hard to start???
sounds like spark plugs?? but would they make it that much slower? i only pulled my friends 01 cobra with intake and exhuast about 4-5 cars... i use to just take off like he was sitting still.. i am still getting the same amount of boost as before as well. the car takes 30 seconds to 2 minutes to start. what could be wrong? i pulled a plug and it looked fine from cylinder number 1. looks like it has been barely rich but just about right compared to most plugs, no oil or fuel on it. basically brand new looking. they only have 1700 miles on them. car always does put out black smoke on WOT which means its rich.

it bogs down low as well.. ive never had detonation problems in the past? if a coil was bad... wouldnt it misfire and be noticeable or get a check engine light?

it doesnt go through the rpms as fast as it use to... when you rev it doesnt hesitate or knock. but under load, its just not that fast.
