This is just a shot in the dark, but have you tried replacing your fuel filter? Maybe one of your injectorsis going bad, have you checked those? Have you had your car tuned after your mods? It could be leaning out a little with the extra CFM's from that t/b & plenum combo. I could be totally wrong, but just my two cents.

been roughly 3 years or so since i replaced fuel filter.how do you check to see if injectors are going bad? nope, haven't had a tune. that stuff has been on there bout a year & a half. thanks for your input guys. oh, would egr valve have anything to do with this? never replaced before.
