I would double check the fuel pressure. I have seen even when the fuel pressure is good the delivery is weak because of a fuel tank switching valve. This sounds like the crankshaft angle sensor or the fuel pump has gone out, when you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? These guides should help us fix it.
