Yes, you can check the error codes on your car. There should be a little rectangular diagnostic port near the fuse box under the hood. I believe you use a jumper on terminals Te1 (sometimes just T1)...

Well, to tell you the truth, the TPS has already been looked at. Unless the new TPS they brought in was screwed, it's working fine. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I've definitely heard of them. I've also heard that they may not be so great to use as you can potentially bugger up your engine. I suppose that only happens if you're doing something super retarded...

That is a good suggestion, however, that is not the case with this problem. The car will run fine with lots of power up until 4k. After that, the car simply feels like it is not getting more power....
