Ever since I purchased my 97 completely stock GST the transmission has always acted funny and I just can't figure it out and need some help. It is the most annoying thing and usually occurs after the car is warmed up, which doesn't take long.
The tranny pulls hard whenever you floor it whether in overdrive or not. Downshifts perfect on WOT, it basically does everything its suppose to do except the fact that usually from a stop my bogging down problem occurs. No I haven't seen any threads on this exact problem yet, as in my tranny shifts perfect and does everything perfect.... except for the sudden Bogging.
Ok finally... it seems to bog on light to mid throttle and very rarely on WOT and if I let off the gas and quickly hit it again it seems to like overcome the deadspot and its fine. Its like the car is in a rich state or somthing and just basically BOGS down but still accelerates smoothly, just with no power. Now I have done everything from changing the spark plugs, to wires, to trans fluids and find this super annoying that it still does it. And I have had the car for over a year and now have intercooler piping, boost controller, intake, Stainless turbo header back exhaust, and yet is still does it, but slightly improved. It seems to also do it less in the cold weather also.
So Please someone tell me how to fix this problem, it just doesn't seem mechanical at all, more or less a throttle problem or somthing. So please let me know. Thanks.

It has no problems in reverse, and from above 3000 rpms in first gear its fine. If I floor it from a dead stop, the engine will rev right away to 2500-3000 rpms then stay there, and I'll slowly crawl forward, gradually accelerating to like 30 mph, as if the cluch pack is slipping or the tc is messed up (its a brand new tc, and was rebuilt with IPT's rebuilt kit), then the engine will act normal (mph go up with rpms) . I have to get a rolling start just to pull up my driveway. If I dont, ill get stuck, i can floor it and it wont go anywhere. I dont know if yours is like this at all, but i still havent figured it out. Im having the guy who rebuilt it come to my house this week, have towed to the shop later in the week probably.
