This sounds like a problem i had, for awhile. I changed out all my spark plugs and the ICM (both) on top of the airbox. then put some seafoam in the car. smoked like all great out for about 5 mins and had to change the oil in like 200 miles but no more codes for me. I dont know if that helps at all but it did fix my problem. Also see if you get the codes cleared and got to a WOT in second the took off my check engine light for a day till it came back and i did the above. here is the link to seafoam your car

It's sounds like its running in limp mode. You definitely have a A/F trim issue from a malfunctioning sensor or a sensor thats getting false readings. You can try the seafoam but I don't think that's going to fix it. What codes are you pulling now?

yea, i would also say go back to stock spark plugs if you have not and you could also have to replace your coil packs. This sucks man, hope the seafoam helps with the new plugs and then i guess go for coil packs, and the ICM.

let me know what you think of this ! as we were doing a boost leak test, found only minor leaks in the aftermarkt DV's he pulled the oil dipstick and oil shot out???? I was not there for that incident but he xplained . we also ran vag and its showing consistant mis fires in number 6 cylinder ! also 1 3 & 6 ,we swapped the Coilpacks and it did nothing but pull up the same codes.. I put in the stock DV's and there is no boost leak ! the oil squirting out was due to the Pvc vavle but highly doubt that causing the misfiring! no other codes except Misfires...........
