Whenever I drive it, its slow and weak... I'm tired of holding up traffic after a green light and going uphill. I recently replaced the Wires, Plugs, Cap, Rotor, And just changed the O2 sensors yesterday.
I checked my "accordian" Intake hose thing and it was cracked but i sealed that up pretty well with some duck tape for now. The car still performs the same. It's pretty embarrasing when I have someone ride with me and i can tell the difference just from their body weight, which affects accleration too. Also it does get Poor gas milage maybe like 15Mpg. I can only get about 180 Miles off a full tank... It does backfire a little when i let off the clutch to shift gears sometimes.
I don't know what else could be causing this... Maybe a plugged cat? My brothers Probe SE Has more power and response than my GS...

Also I'm running straight pipe and when I let off the gas It doesn't make that "pop" Backfire sound, that it should. Anyone??
Can anyone help me out and give me some pointers or something? I'm tired of this...
BTW it's the Stock K8 motor with a 5 speed. 191k miles.
