Does it happen all the time or stop after it has warmed up?

Im going to take it in for a second oil change here shortly, so I will have them look at it.

This happened to me last fall but it went away actually.

spark plugs, just have the Service advisor check out to see how they are firing? I always thought spark plugs last for a long time?

anyone have the clip to the saleen supercharger maintance?????

Have you ever had the PCM updated by Saleen? There is an update for 2006 cars for a post shift throttle lag. It could be described as a stumble.

If Ford has ever done PCM updates for Air Bags and the like, you could have issues with having lost the Extreme programming if they didn't follow the Saleen-prescribed procedures. If that's the case, be prepared to have them ship the PCM to Troy for re-programming.

thanks for the info. I will give it some time and a new tank of fresh gas with an oil change and see how it feels.

Ive had this sluggish feel before in 2nd gear and it went away as too.

Pull one plug if it looks like this, you might as well do the plugs. Mine was acting the same way and the plugs were fouled by Octane Booster.
