Unhappy No power above 7k and dies at Idle sometimes

as the title says, I have no power above around 7,000 rpm's and now and then my car will die at idle... especially when pulling into driveways with a lil angle...

What could be wrong? Im thinking maybe my cars fuel pump is going out? Injectors bad? Bad spark plugs? dunno any help much needed!

my car is a '04 with about 57,000 miles

Have you been seeing any increase in crank time at start-up before the engine catches of latel?
