Default car hesitating b/c of overheating help!

I did a search and no one seemed to have the same problem as me. When I run my car cold it runs fine as it starts to heat up it starts to feel slow and sluggish, like its overheating. If I get on the gas at certain rpm points it feels like the power just drops. So i changed out the thermostat and its still doing it. Brought it to the shop and they ran it around for awhile and used the heat gun on it and it reads normal. Fans are working, water pump is fine, and the radiator is not leaking. The temp gauge never goes past halfway but it still runs like crap. Once in vtec it pulls hard but I have 0 low end power any ideas on why it runs like ***? oh yea its a 94 gsr is that helps
Thanks

Have you checked your oil fluid levels? Is there a engine light on?
