It starts and idles, but when you give it gas won't go above 1500 RPM. Things I've done, checked fuel pumps, both work, airflow meter also fine, relays fine, plugscap, rotar all fine, catalytic converter not plugged, crank shaft position sensor replaced,

Timing? Fuel pressure? You said crank position sensor, which one? There are two and they interchange. What happened, when did this start. How do you know the cat isn't plugged?
