i'm dead (long)

yes, it feels sluggish. the throttle response is not good at all. when i am cruising at 2000 rpms and i step on it, it is sluggish. once the rpms the around 3000, it is better.

i would start by covering the basics. first, check the timing and make sure it is at 10*. if it is, go over the plug wires and make sure the wires are hooked up in the right order. (going counterclockwise starting at #1, it is 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8). if it is neither of those, remove the plugs and make sure none are fouled and that they are gapped correctly. i run a .045 with my setup. next i would change the fuel filter. there is a very good chance that it is something as simple as the problems i stated causing the issue. when i put mine back together, i accidentally crossed the #1 and #2 wires. the car started and idled, but had no power at all. i literally could have been beaten by a stock civic. also, is the check engine light on? hope that helps you out. get back with me on the specs of your combo, and ill get together a tweecer calibration that will give you a good starting point for tuning it yourself. remember though, even though you are able to tune it yourself and datalog it yourself, you can still get a ton of valuable info from a dyno pull with a wideband o2.

My point exactly - and the tune will go MUCH faster. I guess the only problem might be how to save $150-200 on the "side" to save momma grief.
