Help! slow rev in netural or driving

Ok I have searched and searched google and other wise...
Car: both my rx7s one is a 89 rx7fc turbo, second is 88 fc n/a
Issue: both cars are way sluggish flood right away my )n/a has a switch wired into the fuel pump to unflood it turbo has been unflooded as well. spark plugs cleaned
after getting them to start they will idle but under wot it takes a while for them to reach any kind of rpm and will finally go to red line, no smoking both have oil and fresh fuel and clean plugs
the turbo car had all trailing plugs installed ..i did change them and wire correctly(just saved it from going to the junk yard from my cousin)
n/a car i was at a drift event and car was running at idle and then i went to leave the pit and would not rev. tink thinking either fuel pump or filter or cats plugged?any advise at all would be helpful.

Pull the 02 sensor out, if it revs better, cats are to blame.
