It's been a few weeks with the Zed which I'm enjoying enormously, the handling is awesome, almost on a par with my old RX8, however I know she's a high mileage, I've put two thousand on her this month taking her to 141000 but once you get her to 3500 revs she's away like a good thing, however below 3500 she's smooth but gutless, most cars trundle past me at the lights unless I cane her which I'm loathe to do, I've changed plugs, coils, air filter seats, cleaned the carpet and washed her but no change.
Is this normal or am I missing something, VANOS maybe??

Poor running
yes that kind of how it is, much more happening at 3000+, mine is 3.0 and 13 years old. A remap will bring the power delivery down the rev range and make it more eager i believe, not much in the way of power gains but more useable. its on my list to do. 
3.0l Silver SMG, whippy and ginge fringe/ Sound gen mod/ Media bridge fitted (bluetooth and audio streaming) / Clear third break light/ Hard Top/ Eibachs springs and DLV back box/ Roof motor in the boot/ plus lots more.
