It seems like when i let off the clutch and give it full throttle it revs up normally and the engine is real loud but it is being held back by somethingI just bought it and im worried about it a little so any help will be greatly appreciated

well guys i got some great news..Today I had my neighbor take the car for a ride to see if he could tell what was wrong with it. When we were done he said that he couldnt find anything wrong and that it felt like a fast sports car(he drives trucks so i thought he just didnt know better). Well later on i took it for a spin and it felt like a completely diffrent car!!! It accelerates great. It still has a little delay in 2nd but other then that it is amazing. It is the most fun car i have ever driven. The only thing i can think is that it sat for 6-12 months bnefore i bought it and it needed to be broken in. The guy that owned it must have traded to the dealer for cheap and the dealer thought he was ripping me off by selling it to me for 4700 with a bad engine. I think i am the happiest 17 y.o. alive!!!!

Ill post some pics later.

probably because it is slow... being that it's heavy, and n/a... 223hp isn't much for a 3,500lb car.

If it sat for a while thne everyhtign is clogged up. The gas is probably stale. Put some fresh gas in her and she will come alive.....

how many miles? when was the timing belt last changed? spark plugs? fuel filter? air filter? injectors been cleaned? you should easilly be able to dumop the clutch and light up the tires if it's too weak down low there has to be a reason, check the coil plugs make sure they are all in decent shape, seeing as you just got it you need to find the condition of all the normal wear and tear items and make sure it not just simple neglect
