Either way, my engine has been lagging for the past 6 or so months now. Nothing serious has gone wrong, but there is alot of engine lag, especially in first gear or when the A/C is full blast. I have a V-AFC, which was replaced after it was stolen out of my car. I had my engine replaced in Florida w/ 55,000 miles because I hydro-locked my car during a flood. Ever since the engine replacement in Florida, my car has had some serious lag. My thoughts are that there is a fuel cut-off somewhere and it has something to do with the CPU. I've taken it to all of my mechanic friends and they all have different opinions. There's no way I'm going to dealership so they can charge me $5000000 for a diagnostics test to tell me they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Has anyone ever experienced this problem or have any idea what could be causing my engine to lag so bad I spill everything in my car?

ENGINE LAG IS A TERRIBLE THING.
PLEASE HELP.
