Try putting the stock ECU back in, just for s**t and giggles...
XR6 ECUs are way way way waaaaay overrated unless you have a cam that the standard computer struggles with, or you need the XR ECU to fix auto shiftpoints due to a change to 3.45 diff.

1. put a NON xr6 ecu in
2. which fuel pressure reg is it running? XR6 or stock?
3. adjust timing to spec and check the advance
4. check fuel pressure
5. is it taking off in 1st or 2nd?

Mine did that for a couple of days its also a 98 engine you'd take off at the lights and the car will start reving up but moving slowly then after a certin bit it would go found out later the Torque Converter Was Stuffed Wierd But true

i think you should take your car to someone who knows what they are looking at. How much money have u already spent on map sensor and tps's and all the other stuff u've replaced.
i dont mean this with any offence to you, but you could easily replace parts till the cows come home and still not find anything.

Have there been any additives in the tranny oil. If si this can lower stall speed and result in slow takeoff.

I had an EA with crook tranny and leaking front seal, threw too much additive in and didn't realise till I serviced it and replaced fluid.

Thought I had extra horses til I realised.

worth a try to change filter (tranny) and fluid.
