Saturn SC2 Rpm Problem

My question to all the saturn heads is that my car is having idle issues/bogging out when accelerating a bit fast..to be more detailed when i actually start my car from a cold start the idle jumps up to 2000 rpm and slowly goes down to about 900 rpms..Now another thing i notice is that when i put the car in drive it instantly takes off and i barely have to touch the gas..another issue is that if im at a light and decide to accerlate a bit faster then usual to quickly get up to about 50
Mph the car feels like its bogging out and if i have to slow down the rpms lose power and drop to about 200 rpms and the only way for the car to regain power i have to hit the gas and i cant because i have to stop at a light or intersection..any ideas you guys can help me out on? Electrical? Sensors?

I would check your bottom coolant temp sensor that has two wires going to it.Also inspect the inside of theconnector.If the tterminals are blue or green instead of silver you will need to replace the connector also.
