clean your maf, then check your o2s. My bet is on the o2 sensors. Does it pick up power if you keep your foot in it at WOT or does it just bog like that no matter what? Check your terminals on your battery and your ground.

Any mods done to the car? If so, what? Is it throwing any codes? Fuel pressure ok?
