What sensors to check

My car seems to be slower than it should. I could only get her to run a 15.1 in the 1/4mile when it should be in the low 14s. I have new plugs,wires,cap and rotor on the car. Im wondering if anyone can point to some other sensors that could cause this. Im thinking O2 sensors makeing the car run rich/lean. I dont know what other sensors on the car could make it not perform well. The car runs fine, idol is smooth, seems slugish but it has been that way since i bought her. Any pointers would be $$, i am looking into the datalogging thing so i can maybe see what is wrong though that.

I would suggest you build an ALDL cable for about $10 in parts from Radio Shack, download Tuner Pro RT (has an ALDL utility), and borrow a laptop from a friend. Its a big help to have, and is much better than a scantool.

As to the sensors, this might be of some help:
