Have you changed your IC pump out?
If not, then that's making your car feel sluggish with no power.

none
Scan for codes
Could be a misfire or a cracked sparkplug like mine

Do you have any modifications? I have signatures turned off if that's where they're listed. How long do you have to drive it before it does this? Give us more descriptions. Does it lose power in the middle of a pull? Might be the "hiccup", since turning car off and on resets it, but you have no code. Does it feel like the supercharger isn't engaged?

Are you data logging? Check AFR and short term fuel trims when this happens.

Check to see if the supercharger pulley has seized onto the supercharger. Remove the belt and spin the pulley. It should spin freely.

I would start with the tune on the car - call up EC and have them check it out remotely. I wouldn't recommend driving the car, either, just to be safe/not cause damage, if any.

I bet money on the fuel pump. The one on the passenger side. When was the last time it was changed? I would recommend replacing it along with the sender on the driver side. Not a cheap repair, but again I bet that this is your problem!

you may have leak in your headers. Are they multi piece runners? These can suffer from this especially if your engine mounts are bad. The engine will torque and pull the runners apart and the o2 sensors read incorrectly sometimes rich sometimes lean depending on whether your engine is torquing on the runners. The other possibility is bad O2 sensors

Check for leaks around the collector tubes.

Recommended to replace pumps & filter/sending units at 60,000 miles
