Holy crap. I didn't realize what a big deal cleaning these were!! I have a 94 GT convert AODE and after i used half a can of contact cleaner and several q-tips, the car has a ton of nuts. Before it was a slug, now it spins them like it used to. Does anyone know any other tricks like this to tune the car up even better?

Check your tps voltage reset if needed, advance your timing, knock the honeycomb out of your cats. The biggest gain, get a set of rear end gears 3.73(if you need some highway ability)-4.10's(if it's all city driving).

i hear ya, my car is a dog too(same exact car...)... i cleaned off my MAF too and thought it had a lot more in it ...but now either it is dirty again, something else is wrong, or i got used to the power... but probably not the last option since i seriously couldn't spin the tires if my life depended on it unless i brakestand it... whats going on??!!
