Default Sluggish B16 Del Sol ??

I've got a 94 Del Sol B16 (all factory) 150k miles.....

I have new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, ign Module, ignitor, fuel filter, timing belt, v-tech seal.

I also have put on a CAI kit.

It runs pretty good with A/c off or at full throttle, but a little sluggish at mild throttle, or at cruising speed.

When it is cold, it's real sluggish.....it kinda has a bad hesitation, and it seems to be worst while i'm cornering while cold too ( but maybe i'm trippin on that part). It is nearly unbarable at times if cold engine and A/C on.

What do yall think it is ?

WELL....probably like most 4 bangers.....not too peppy.

But at full throttle....it really starts to opens up around 4500+
