Can you expand on what you mean by bogs down? Engine doesn't make power? Engine sounds like its struggling (like its making power but transmission isn't grabbing a lower gear?)? If its just lowering rpms from neutral to drive, that is not at all uncommon. Many ecu's will hold a high idle in neutral, especially in colder climates and especially during warm up.

Like it spits and sputters while trying to switch gears and it almost dies when I put it in gear
