I just claend my throttle body, now when i try to drive my rx7 it feels gutless. When i push the pedel to the floor the car seems to take 6 secs to take it in. I takes me a good 20 secs to even get up to 20mph. the car was working great untell i tryed to clean the throttle body.

Check the throttle cable. It shold be tight with no play.

Mine is pretty darn stretched, with the pedal floored it's only about 60% throttle.

Easy way to test is have someone inside push it down from inside, then stand in front of the engine and push down on the throttle. Easy way to tell if the pedal is giving you full throttle or not.
