Could be anything !!
Dont drive it hard, get it checked by a proffesional before you break it !
Engine rebuilds cost thousands.
Most likely a sensor failure.
Coolant(blue) , Map sensor, Charge air (brown) or the throttle position sensor.

SECS, had it at a rolling road and all they could see wrong is the igntion lead have to much resistance but all my sensor are brand new 2 month ago i mean every thing. it still boost up the same but just dont pull and even the tone of the engine sound differnt when your trying to go up into the revs befro it would just snap in to its revs realy fast but now it goes but sounds strangeld or it just tugs in in at high revs

Still could be a sensor problem. !!!
A very remote possibility.....
I have had my car with a worn crank pulley which caused bad ignition retard.
This is what the ecu uses as a timing reference.
The woodruff key had worn away and the pulley was loose retarding the ignition
by about 15 degrees.!!!
The pulley was firmly bolted on too !
I would still recomend taking it to a specialist or someone local who knows what they are doing !
