Does this sound normal?

I have an auto 93 firehawk(3.23 gears), and when i first bought it, if i punched it from say 20 mph or lower, it would roast the new tires. It seems that ever since i put my cut-out on it, if i try and punch it, even from a stop, i cant roast the tires, it sort of bogs. Is that from the lost low-end torque?

once the rpms pick up, the acceleration picks up to what it usually is. I'd like to put the cap back on and test it out, but i lost the thing . Is it possible that something else could be wrong and it just happend to go wrong at the same time? Or has anyone else experienced the same problem with a cut-out?
