Lacking punch/power and Lagging Acceleration

I have an 88 SAAB TC. Recently, I have noticed that it is lacking power/punch and lagging in accelaration. The turbo/APC guage appears to be fluctuating propertly and the turbo sounds good. It just seems as though the car is hesitating. Yesterday on a highway I was in 4th gear and slowly watched the RPM's increase and shifted into 5th. Prior to this problem, I could strongly increase speed/RPM's and strongly shift into 5th. The lack of power is in all gears. Once in 5th gear yesterday, I even floored it just to see what would happen. It slowly increase from 75 to 80 at which time I maintained 75. It reminds my of riding with a friend who was driving my car. He was shifting up too early. The car lacked power due to his shifting. Now, it just simply lacks power.
