Ya, need more info on the car, and the "few things" you've already tried.

I'd check your plugs/wires first.

Mod info would be nice. Just a couple things to check would be plugs/wires, and do a boost leak test.

will its an awd auto 14b, free mod done, mbc set to 14psi, mostly still stock... the car will run just fine untill it gets to about 2psi then bogs out but still builds boost just fine.. it just feels like its just not putting the power to the wheels.. i was thinking it might be the torque converter but the tranny still shifts just fine.

what did you gap the plugs to? Can you maybe explain more of what you mean by bogging? Is the car actually braking up and sounding like it's misfiring? Or does everything sound ok but it's just moving very slow? Do you have a logger or anyway to monitor your knock or timing retard?

plugs are at .30.. it doesnt sound like its brakeing up it just wont pick up speed when your in boost.. and i dont have a logger or anyway to monitor anything

.030" gap is borderline. I would do a boost leak test right away, it is probably running rich under boost because of a leak.
