2G Won’t accelerate past 20mph, dies when going slow speed

[iamaustrich]

I have a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse gsx.
The car drove just fine before for a while. The main problem I had was my speedometer didn’t work. I drove for a while without getting that fixed.

Sometimes it hesitates getting it to start up.
When I accelerate it won’t catch up to speed.
It dies when I’m going at the regular speed in drive or stopping.
It idles at 200-500 rpms
It also makes a weird chugging sound. I can’t tell whether it’s a transmission problem, oxygen problem or fuel issue.
My transmission fluid seems to be just fine and same for the oil. I have no codes other than the ones I’ve had originally.
Which is a fuel pressure up Solenoid and ect sensor. Which the ect sensor is bypassed because I have a toggle switch for the radiator fans.
Please help

Here are some videos of what’s going on.. btw that loose hose is just for the wiper fluid sprayer. It comes off when I open the hood. I can fix that part of course haha

Check for boost leaks.

Sounds like you have one hell of an exhaust leak.

That too.

Maybe bad valve timing/low compression, or one cylinder is dead for some reason.
Anyways it needs a good maintenance service.
