First of all, your Caps lock key is sapping engine power; turn it off and you'll see another 20whp. Second, check your throttle cable and tighten it if necessary.

i had this problem for a while and it turned out to be my knock sensor.

my TB and filter were dirty as well, but i think the ks did the trick.

clean up the system first with seafoam. then if it doesn't work, you'll need to start modding your car like me and my two bro's. i got a 5 speed, and my two bro's both got the auto's. we are all 4th gens. modding will improve your responses. good luck.

if you need help with seafoaming, pm me, i'll show you everything. i do a small seafoaming every week with my intake system, and a big one over the intake and injector once a month. my car runs smooth and powerful up till now. it's got 135k miles on it and it still drives like a monster.
