SR20 holding back problems

Recently started to get this problem. As the car heats up it tends to hold back a bit. Like a lil stutter. As it gets warmer it reaches to a point where the engine dies down and it does not exceen 2000rpm. As i step on the gas it revs till 3000rpm and dies off. The car does not cut off. All this happens only when im driving. If parked the engine revs freely. Another thing i noticed is that when i get this problem, if i switch off the car and start it right back the problem goes but just for a short time.
Any help or advise will be greatly appreciated.
