feels like my car is dragging

About a month ago my check engine light came on. I stopped and had it checked they said it was a (bank 1 lean) code. Ok they did not reset it. I called the dealer to make an apointment to have them check it out. On my way to the dealer the light went away. So I called and canceled. Today I was driving home and the car felt like it lossed power so I down shifted and started to pull over to tje side of the road I noticed both my cluch pedel and brake pedal was really tough to push. I stopped and got out everthing looks fine. I get back in and drive home. The car seemed fine other than I have no real power, it seems to fall on iys face anytime you push on the gas. All gauges seem to be showing good readings such as tach, boost, and temp. But I can feel like its dragging up front. Brakes are good. Rotors are a year old. Not hot to the touch. My car is an 06 ss/sc with about 136k. I have had the gm stage two installed on the car when it was new. I have also had the cat chaged out about two years ago. Any body have any ideas that might push me in the right direction? Thanks

for starters
its HIGHLY unlikely that the o2 sensor fixed it self on your way to the shop. it will most likely still need to be addressed .

sounds to me like, something els went off kilter ( air/fuel wise, in the motor or fuel delivery/air system ) and the o2 started reading in the "good range" but there is still a masked problem. get what im saying? what that can be is beyond me, i havent personally been driving to feel it
