I think u have to take the battery terminals off and hold them together for 10-20 seconds than put them back on.

I have the same manifold...Is her paint on the hood cracked from the heat too?...

You dont have to hold the terminals to gether.. just disconnecting the battery for ten minutes does the same thing...
in fact I you should waite then after drive the car like a calm human for a couple days turning on all the acces. randomly to impose a load on the engine so it can reprogram.. It does work.. Then drive normal so the trans will reprogram to her style..

yea dont put the terminals together.....put disconnect the negative battery terminal, and are you pulling a CEL? If so you're in limp mode, and that makes your car run really sluggish
