Some (windless) days the car accelerates and coasts like the wind is
to its back and other days, while it's not even close to sluggish, it
does feel more like it's driving into a stiff wind.  A/C on or off
makes no difference.  NGK platinum's and clutch changed within the
last 10k miles.  

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

The knock sensor sets a code, but does not light the engine light.  If your
knock sensor is failing it could account for behavior like this.  Try
reading out the stored codes and see if there is anything in there.
