I havent went WOT b/c im afraid something bad will happen.  Lol.  Im in between moving because I just purchased a house so it'll be some days before i can actually get to driving it.  Gonna fix the fuel leaks as well.  My cousin Charles let me borrow his laptop that has direct scan on it.   havent hooked it up yet either.  Should be able to get you everything you need from that, yeah?  I'll be in touch guys.  Again, thanks for the replies.

Also forgot to mention that the SM shows a code 44.  havent unplugged the ecm wire from the battery to check and see if it clears permanently or if it'll come back, but i do feel like i should mention it.  I think code 44 is a lean exhaust.

Will do gents.  My next response will be the resistance of the coil pack.  When the mechanic mentioned the FWD coil pack i scratched my head b/c i spent quite a bit on the units i purchased from NOS4GN.  The quickest thing i can do is ohm the coil pack.  Thanks for the responses and stay tuned.  I can also post some SM numbers.

Hey steve, thanks for the reply. Everything is actually fine while cruising. Under acceleration is when I have these issues. Sorry if the post was confusing. On another note, just went outside to check it out b/c I haven't had a lot of time with the car, and found three different locations in which It was leaking fuel.

What Makes 100%?

 What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
 Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.
How about achieving 103%?
What makes up 100% in life?

A man came home from work one day to find his wife on the front porch with her bags packed.  "just where the heck do you think you're going!," said the man. 'Im going to Las Vegas', said the wife, 'I just found out I can get $400 a night for what I give you for free!!'  The man said, 'wait a minute!,' and then ran inside the house only to come back a few minutes later with his suitcases in hand.  'Where the heck are you going?,' says the wifre.  The man said, "i want to see how you're gonna live on $800 a year!"
