What have you done to the car to try and fix the problem so far?

Re: no power at wot
If it was me I would be doing the following:
Clean MAF New Plugs, wires, if necessary. and New fuel filter. I would reset the computer after this is done, and go from there. |

Re: no power at wot
Check fuel pressure, I'd be you don't have much (or it drops off under acceleration). Changing the filter is a good first plan.

Re: no power at wot
Crown Vics eventually kill off their catalytic converters. When one fails, your top speed drops to nearly a crawl. Ford will be happy to replace them, though, they're $1200 a side.
