Are you getting spark knock? If so then your knock sensor is picking this up and pulling timing out of the car. As you give it less gas it gets better? I had a bad knock sensor. It was pulling 14 degrees of timing out, made the car slower as i gave her more gas.

Just my .02

the knock sensor has nothing to do with fuel delivery.
possible causes: faulty ECT, IAT, TPS, IAC, O2, MAF, MAP, VSS sensor; faulty quad driver circuit in pcm, faulty or leaking fuel injector, faulty fuel pressure regulator...

you need to get someone with a scan tool (that will know what they are looking at) to look at it.

in the meantime you could check fuel press and compare to spec. to test press regulator.
