Sluggishness is likely the nature of the transmission (look at the 4th solenoid bypass mod) along with vacuum leaks or TPS adjustment.

When you eliminate those issues, the car really comes alive. I was stopped at a light today and a truck rolled up at full speed (30 mph zone) in the other lane, thinking he could get the jump on me before the lanes merge a block later. I gave it at most half throttle and held him off easily, much to his apparent surprise. The SC400 can get moving plenty quick when everything is working right.

Quicker starting and if it were bad it would be an option. You might need a good tune up and make sure that no vacumn lines are bad.
