Question Turns over, no start

I was driving to work one day and I had no power. The engine wouldn't rev past 2K and no way in hell it would past 40MPH. With that being said... I have fuel and spark, but the engine wont fire. The fuel pump is good so it's not that. I'm cluless here.

I took the upper intake off to make sure nothing was clogging it....zipp-zero. I was told the injector plug should read 12v on wire and the other 0v. Mine says 12.5v on one and the other 11.5v (primary and secondary).

Can some one help me please

-Brandon

this might sound dumb, but is it flooded? i know mine would start, but when i tried to rev it, it would get to just under 2k, and then drop, then repeat, even if the pedal was floored. when i tried drivin it, it would move, then the whole car would buck violently till i pushed clutch back in, top speed like 3 mph. it kinda sounded like what mine does sometimes..
