Default why does my car bog?

Well i just have some questions? Why does my car bog when i step on the gas? The car runs great, no problems when i ride it smoothly. But when i step on the gas it bogs right away from the start. Is it a fuel problem or needs tune up? Last tune up was around 98k right now it has 133K, completely stock.

And where should i start from if its a fuel problem. First, probably the fuel filter, but then i don't know where to go from there.

try cleaning your throttle body, and clean the MAF sensor, and change the fuel filter and use some good fuel injector cleaner like the one lucas sells! also you can check the air filter and spark plugs too!
