Default Car bogging on hard acceleration

It seems like if you ease into the gas then everything is fine but if you really try to get on the gas then the car will bog down and feel like its missing. I thought it might have been a fuel delivery problem but I have no idea.

Some things to check would be the Coil Packs, plug wires, plugs themselves, TPS, CPS, etc. I would lean towards the coil packs first.

Ya man my 02 gt was just doing the same thing the other day. Turned out one of my hoses by the throttle body was loose. It was the one that is on the top of the engine by the upper part by the throttle body. Ita connected to a small rectangular black box thing. Sorry I'm not being more specific anyway I just put it back tight an never had the problem
Since. The hose isn't too big now.. About an inch thick. Just check alll your hoses and vacuum lines. Hope this helps man

how many miles are on it? I would clean your maf, change your plugs and fuel filter. And go from there. If its time for a tune up just do all that plus new wires. Another thing to check for. Is when its darker out run the car and make sure non of your wires are arcin out.
