I have officially run out of ideas as to what my cars problem could be.Heres the problem. no matter how easy i am on the throttle the engine bogs heavilly and its extremely hard to rev up, sometimes not revving at all. the car does this when its parked and when its being drivin. i did a boost leak test and found no leaks. my vacuum is reading only 15lbs so i thought that might have something to do with it, so i replaced avery line and saw no improvement. i also though it might have been a bad coilpack so i replaced it with a new one and still got nothing. Is there something that i could have missed? where do i go from here?
 
hmmm...definitely sounds like a Vac problem, but you said you took care of that. Check your Idle Control and your Timing.
 
Check to see what codes your car is throwing. It sounds like an bad EGR valve. Keep an eye your your mass air flow sensor. Let us know what you find.
