Default 02, V6 Firebird Can't solve problem!!!!

I own an 02, v6 5-speed. Have 156,000 miles on it and has run great untill about 2 months ago. For some reason my car is pulling timing really bad. One sec I can cruise down the road and the nxt my car dosn't want to reach 60mph. I have replaced the fuel pump, catalytic converter, ecm, and cool packs. Checked fuel pressure, all of my sensors are working, and no bad grounds. Anyone have any ideas?

with things like that you need to check 1 of two things: fuel delivery and spark. so if all of your cylinders are firing and all the plugs and wires are good you might have a fuel pump that is going out. i had one go out before but mine went out suddenly. yours could be going out gradually though. also check all of your filters, air, fuel etc to see if you don't have a blockage somewhere. installing these items sometimes seems to make a car run better. other more complicated things could be the egr valve. just some suggestions hope you find your problem.
