Lightbulb

Get the code read and post the results... Not much to go on without the codes. The shoot from the hip would be a turbo problem (stuck closed). Get the codes!

When were the fuel filter last changed? Maybe a no fuel flow thing... Also, get those codes pulled! Most local auto parts store have them for lending.

Even if it is running poorly, Autozone told me they don't check for codes unless there is a CEL

Being an 03 I would shoot for the ICP sensor, have fun changing that one because it located under and behind the turbo.
