Try replacing the fuel filter....start with the simpler and cheap
explanations first. Adequate fuel for idle but not enough for acceleration
is a common symptom of this. If it still does it after a filter replacement,
it's time for a shop to diagnose it. Remove and replace the MAF sensors or
others is expensive and not guaranteed to give you a solution.

The fuel pump, filter, and relay are new (replaced in last 6 months).
I have also replaced spark plugs and plug wires.

It would be nice if you included trivialities like this in the OP......

Start the engine. Put your hand behind the exhaust. Is there air flow?
It may be a clogged catalytic converter.
