Stopped by to pick up a pizza and took off to no power. Accelerator all the way down not much there. Had just enough umph to get home. I had to manually shift to avoid the transmission from work through the gears too fast because I wasn't gaining the speed I would with where the RPM I was at.
    Checked the MAP, clean as a whistle and plugged in (had it come unplugged before with a similar result)
    Checked the boost, hoses were firm and pressurized at 2500.
    No Codes, dummy lights, nothing.
    Bled the fuel head as there was a considerable amount of air in it.
    Oil level is good and no leaks.
    Transmission fluid the right color and not cloudy.
Any thing else?

OK. Just took it out and seems to be OK so either its intermittent or my money is on the air in the fuel head. I did have to pump it about 5 cycles (4 reps each cycle) to get it running fuel with no sputtering.
Crossing fingers for the morning commute!

In tank lift pump would be a starting point in this situation.

And a 2n gen fuel filter head (blue heater element plug on drivers side) if you do not already have one.
