Slow to pull off from a stop position, revs high and loud, feels like no power. No warning lights on dash.

Hello,

There are number of reason for the engine to have low power output. It could be as simple as a clogged air filter or dirty mass air flow sensor.

Since there is no check engine light you will have to check few basic items.

Have a look at this article, it goes over the typical low power output issues:
