Broke rx-8

I have a 06 4 speed 4 port auto rx-8 and recently when we I put it into a drive gear or even touch the accelerator the rpm drops to around 500 and the whole car shakes. What could the issue be?

Did your issues start right after changing coils ect .. ? is it possible you messed up the order of the wires

OBD scanner is like $12 on amazon. I use it to read codes and then go look them up online.

Amazon Amazon

You can also ask your local parts store to borrow tools. They might have a code reader they would lend to you.
