Hmmm. Only other thing could be water in a connector somewhere along the ignition line. Coil pack dry?

same thing happened to my focus. it put itself into safe mode, wouldn't let me go over 3k rpm or into 6th gear.

only happened twice when it rained heavily and sorted itself out within a couple of days.

have you checked the air filter? is it a standard filter you have on? have you tried unplugging battery for an hour so and reconnecting?
