So a quick rundown, a couple weeks ago I had an
issue that you guys helped me troubleshoot as a
bad Cam sensor. I replaced the Cam sensor and the
truck has been running great ever since but I am
noticing a weird issue now since I replaced the
sensor. When ever I get on the accelerator hard it
doesnt sound "Angry" like it did before the other
issue. The truck runs and idles great but when I
really get on it, it sounds muffled (I have had a
flowmaster on the truck for like 7 years now and
it used to sound great, nice and throating when
you stood on it) as if I had put the stock muffler
back on and the intake sounds really loud now. It
is VERY strange. The truck is also acting a
little sluggish. Any ideas??? Like I said, it
runs and idles great, doesnt act like it is
missing or anything, but when I stand on it it
behaves as if it is getting choked and lost almost
all of its throaty sound. Am I making any sense??
Thanks a bunch guys!!

PS, the only real performance mods I have done are
the exhaust, an AIM intake and a Superchips
programmer. I was thinking it could POSSIBLY be a
timing issue with the Superchips and I was going
to try to uninstall the program and see how it
runs. The program worked GREAT for the last few
years before I had the Cam sensor issue and at
that time I removed the program to see if that was
what was causing the other problems. Since it
WASNT the cause of the other issue I reprogrammed
the computer with the performance program and now
it behaves oddly.

Sorry for the long post, let me know if you have
any other questions for me. Thanks again!!
