Run a compression/leakdown test.

tried changing the plugs and someone suggested platinum iridiums so i tried those. the car would ilde fine but as soon as i touch the gas it would stall out til 2k. i had to floor it from idle just to get it past there but as soon as i put in the old plugs which are bright white and look like their junk and it runs fine but still slow

get rid of the iridium's. Turbo, NOS and very high compression engines benefit from these type of plugs. NGK platinum and make sure they are the correct temp range plugs.
