Check the engine codes. If it started after the tune-up parts, check them first. Plug type & gap, cap & rotor quality/properly seated, wire condition/resistance.... It also could be the coil starting to break down.

sounds to me like you may have an ignition timing problem, maybe a mistake was made when installing the rotor along with the cap and plugs, retarted ignition timing can often lead to backfiring and power loss depending on how severely retarted it is, or if there is no power loss could be too advanced, especially if u dont have a knock sensor to retard the timing once it starts knocking under load..........
