    Well I am having problems with the car downshifting into passing gear....It started happening when I put the new K&N Intake on....It wants to go nowhere when you try to pass someone it doesnt shift for awhile when your give it gas it sticks at 4 grand for awhile b4 it will shift...Im thinkin it has something to do with the stock pcm still in it.... If anyone has any ideas please let me know....

    Thanks
    Josh

    Nope. Stock PCM wouldn't matter if all you have is that overpriced POS intake. Any codes?

    the only motor stuff done to it is the intake of course and flowmaster exhaust from the cat back....no codes at all and it also has had a problem with just dying when im at a light or wat not and checked for dat and still no codes..... and the gas gauge goes crazy also....
