Ive had my car for over 4 years now and I don't feel the power when I hit the throttle. The car has about 90,000 miles pending a water pump and timing belt change. Any ideas on what the problem might be so I can check during the tune up??

Everything.
boost hoses, vac lines, waste gate, compressor turbine, N75, cracked SMIC etc..
While you have the mechanic in there doing the timing belt have him inspect as much as he can compressor side to intake manifold side. There could be any of the above wrong. As well as a collapsed catalytic converter.. Go out for a drive, run it hard and hot. Park the car pop the hood. If the Turbo hot side is glowing red your exhaust side could be restricted.
