2001 jimmy no hp wtf

ok so i was driving my grandmas car while my ball joint was being replaced we basically have the same car mine is a 96 s10 blazer, mine feels hella torquey and like it has balls, hers just feels like it has no hp... i checked the oil air filter spark plugs everything but when you put your foot into it it just revs high doesnt feel like it moved any faster and then shifts... any ideas on what the problem could be???

that car has a learning feature and if she drives short diatances adn like most grandmas, than it has adapted to her style.

disconnect the battery and touch both cable together for 30 minutes, this will make it relearn all the parimeters
