Car loses power @ WOT
Ok, I driving along and the car is @ WOT. What's weird is that if I slowly let off the gas a little, say I give it 90% throttle. The car starts to pull harder and go faster. What's up what that?

How old is your CAT?
When my Cat started breaking apart, a chunk got sideways under full throttle it clogged and bogged the car doewn but 3/4s throttle it was fine.
Either way with the fuel filter... I owudl change that first, problem or no 10 years old is old!
I am on my 3rd one with a 94.

10 year old fuel filter? 
Wow...that is OLD!
When you change the filter, do us a favor...save the filter and cut it open and take a picture!
Even if that isn't the problem, you should see a pretty good increase in drivability.

after u change your fuel filter if that doesn't fix it, pull your plugs out and check them, if they are all carboned up have your fuel injectors checked. i had the same problem and spent alost $2000 replacing things before i found out that the injectors were leaking. if i floored it, it just sorta died and sputtered, and if let off a bit, it would push me back in the seat. good luck
