Ohhh...the normal stuff, in order, I'd verify:
-condition of spark plugs
-significant vacuum leaks
-air filter (look for it being oil soaked, spots are OK)
-cam timing (quick check is to set ign timing to TDC, then fire light
on cam sprocket, it should line up with VC surface)
-ignition timing
-if not help, then consider clogged CAT
-then go into the FI system, mixture, O2 sensor, etc.

HTH, and post your fix...
