Check your filter is water getting to it? FTRA?SSRA will do that, are they one of your mods?
BTW, why did you get rid of the Powerdyne.??

mine does it too when it rains...I spliced my 02 sensors awhile ago, and then I replaced one of them, with an extension, but my passenger side is still spliced...I don't have 02 emulators for the back two..I wonder if water gets in them...I doubt it, but I'd like to know the same thing if anyone has some answers...the car just bogs, and doesn't wanna go when you press the gas...it feels like a honda at full throttle when this happens!!!! HELP!!

most of the time when that happens its the o2 senser getting water in them, the best thing to do is get some no flash or electrical cleaner and clean that connection and place sume electrical tape around them so it wont happen again.
