My problem is that my car seems to flood out or it is bogging. The gas mileage is not very good as well. Any suggestions on why this is?
Are you getting any CELs?
Is your trans slipping?
What kind of milage?
Shape of the car?
Check plugs?
You need to give us a bit more info to help.

Sorry about the bad description at first, I was in a hurry. I'll try to elaborate a little more now.
i have no CEL's. I did get CEL 16 once, but I resoldered the Main Relay and no problems after that.
The tranny does not slip at all, it actually does very well.
I'm only getting about 23-25 miles a gallon.
The plugs are new and gapped correctly.
Let me tell you a little more about what I think it does.
When you first take off, it seems to have a lot of pep, but once it shifts if seems to bog down, in all the gears, but 2nd the worst. Also, it is very hard to rev it out. It seems like it has a "wall" that it just can't get past.

I thought that too but the guy said he replaced it right before I got it, and it looks new, but I'll replace it this evening. The reason I don't think it is that is because you smell gas like it is getting too much when this is happening. I rode behind it and let my gf drive and you can see it smoke and smell gas when it is doing this.
