My truck when gas is pressed fully will accelerate but has no power and takes a long time to get to 60. My exhaust pipes where pretty loud and now you can barely hear them inside the cab.

If you can disconnect the exhaust pipe going into the cat. converter and see if there is any difference. Sounds like the converter might be getting plugged. Also check the exhaust system to make sure you don't have a crushed pipe. hope this helps. Bob
