My 03 gt must be female. Had her for 2 years now great car w 170,000 on her. She feels fast as crap one day and weak the next. More than not weak. As in one day she's s blast putting you in the seat even in 3rd and the next feels like I'm pulling a trailer. 3 tanks ago she ran strong thru the whole tank but these last 2 back to being slow. And it's s pretty noticeable difference in power. Always runs smooth, just when you floor it some days are way better. 5 spd btw. No codes. Always run bp 87 gas. Only mods are or x pipe super 40, kn filter and nitto 555 275s. Tune up not long ago, everythings great on car. Maybe I just need a good tune? What could cause this and not throw codes? I just wish this thing would run good all the time!

How long has this been going on? Maybe make sure all the plugs are gapped to spec...any air flow restriction? Maybe look to see if the throttle body needs a cleaning? Maybe fuel injectors?
 
this is how my car was just feeling. are any check lights on?..... it was due to a power surge from my tail lights going out. I disconnected battery for 15 mins took it on a solid 30 min ride through all gears then shut it off. runs fine now. the surge reset the computer and it didn't have full time to reset
