Question Engine dies after I put it in drive Dont know what else to do

I finnaly got my RX 7 to start replaced cables spark plugs and new oil clean out cats and did the un flood trick and it started up, smoked for a while and ran pretty good. I then put it in drive and the engine died it seems to have no power. What do I check? are the Aux port valves the cause or what?

Does the car rev pretty easily or does it take a little while to rev up?

Yes it revs up slow. I have to press the gas almost to the floor.

do a compression test to see if the engine is good
