What does this tell you?

My car feels alot faster at 3/4 or so throttle then WOT. Also I get pinging at WOT.

Can you draw any guesses with this symptom?

you probably need to start looking into the DIY PROM board and tuning to make the most of your setup.

Possibly lean on the top end. Very common in stock GM vehicles.

Like others said look at burning your own chips.

You must have had an SES light on then....you should have put that in your post. Your probably still leaving alot on the table if your on the stock tune.
