Acceleration Lack of power? 200

My volvo is great, I have no problems getting it up to 80mph, but I have noticed when accelerating that pressing hte gas down past half way makes very little difference in the acceleration I get. To get any sdecent acceleration ot of the car though I have to hold it down in lower gears longer than it would normally to keep it at higher revs. Is this normal or is it an indication of a bad fuel pressure regulator or something else?

Thanks
