Help get this RX-7 running.

Here is the problem.

Car starts and at about 2500 to 3000rpm it will stutter and want to stall while in motion. and if you rev at a stand still it starts to stutter at 5500 and if you keep the gas pushed down it will die let off and it just goes back to idle.

I think it is fuel related but am not sure what exactly is wrong.

It's not the fuel filter, pump is new (would liek to see a picture of a pump properly installed to see if it is in corectly.) we though maybe no air so the air filter has been replaced as well. Fuel injecotr cleaner was just added to a full tank of gas. Maybe this will solve the problem but I doubt it.

Any ideas?
