I have just purchased a 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie with the 5.7 I have a bad throttle lag really noticeable going up hill. I have replaced the plugs coil packs crank sensor cam sensor air sensor and the last thing I did was a throttle controller I still have the lag going up hill. I replaced everything with OEM parts. Could it be the throttle body it self. Any help appreciated. I m at a loss of what to try next.

Throttle body might be dirty, cleaning can’t hurt. If cleaning doesn’t help, might want to try the pedal commander. I hear it helps, but don’t have one myself.
