Up to about 2000 rpm my car is sluggish. The car runs normal at mid to high rpms. I checked all my plumbing for the blower and it seems fine.I changed the spark plugs. Problem is still there. What else should I look at?thanks

Throttle position sensor? Thats what my 5.0 was doing and I changed the tps and it is fine now. Thats just a guess though. Could be something with the tune.
