Is your mass air flow clean? You can buy special cleaner at the parts store.

Does it rev freely to 5500 rpm when in neutral?

Could possibly be an ignition problem, how are your plugs and wires? Do you have a scan tool?

Did this happen all of a sudden or after you had done something to the car...i"ll take a guess and say it sounds like the opti is going bad or the coil.
