How is your acceleration of engine when in park or neutral? If you experience this only while in gear driving, there may be an issue with timing or a sensor causing decreased engine output, hard to be sure without driving it myself.

You may have an issue with fuel delivery, such as clogged fuel filter, dirty injectors, etc..
