Does it have a catalytic converter?, if so it could be clogged. O2 sensors or EGR valve maybe. I am fighting an almost identical problem, car wants to stall when taking off and has no power up top. Good luck to you and I will let you know if I get mine figured out.

You could have burned a wire or two on the headers. It is also possible the new opti is going south. It is one of those hard things to believe, but it happened to me. Brand new GM opti died after about 2 weeks.
