Does the car seem to accelerate consistantly with the engine RPM or do the RPM's go up and then the car to catch up? I guess what I am asking is do you hear a fast response of the engine with a slow acceleation of the car?

it sounds as if this guy doesnt know much about the car. going from the intake to a relay? why dont you take the car out for a test drive (if you can) and see what it feels like. it sounds like a clutch if its sliping. it doesnt matter how new a clutch is, if a person doesnt know how to drive with it then they go fast. it also doesnt matter how good it is for the same reason. if you can't drive stick, then learn on another car.

what year is it? if its a 2nd gen then you can go to autozone, IF the check engine is on. you can always buy a datalogger, all you need is the program witch you can download, and a cheap palm and the datalogger cord. if you can smell the ecu and all the computers, if its smells then it could be that causing the problem.
