My car needs fixed. When I accelerate, my car doesn't wanna go and I have to push the gas pedal all the way down for it to go anywhere. What does that mean?

I also need to change my timing belt, water pump, and muffler (because it has a hole in it and it sounds like I've got some crazy ass exhaust). LOL

So does anybody know any good mechanics in the Gwinnett area because God knows I won't just go to some random shop. You know damn well they will just fuck some other shit up and then there goes my poor little Civic when I know it'll last me another 200,000 miles.

Someone help me por favor!!!!!!

The problem is it's a Honda.

I'm joking =)

See if any timing is being pulled, check your vacuum, test your fuel pressure, check your spark.

Do you have cat(s)? If so, see if they are glowing red hot after you drive it or see if it sounds like something is loose inside of it.

Edit: If you'll drive down 85 to Northcrest during the week sometime, I'll hook it up to a MODIS and see if you have any stored codes or anything.
