alittle help

hey everyone. just bought a rx-7 for 50 bucks that was sitting in a grove for 3 years without moving, just got it cleaned up and running but am having alittle issues. first off, you cant give full throttle or it will bog and sputter. does anyone know what this problem may be? just changed plugs and fuel filter.
secondly, exhaust was nice and plugged up, is there any aftermarket exhaust i should consider, or one that will fit to be the least.
thanks for the help.

Sitting that long usually requires a complete fuel system flush, lines and tank and a carb rebuild. New fuel pump wouldn't hurt either.

Racing Beat sells a full exhaust system.

In the FAQ thread at the beginning of the 1st gen forum is a link to 'Bringing Your RX7 Back To Life'
