engine going bonkers

ok recently my engine has been acting very strange. one day it'll be just fine, the next it will have almost no power and about 1k before redline it acts like its hitting the limmiter and will not rev any higher. i hooked my scanner up and i am throing codes, p0300, p2070, p0139 ( this one comes up 2x for some reason on my scanner), & p0301. i have new coils/wires/plugs otw. Its a 05 4port with an aem intake and midpipe. other than that its stock. any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks!!

What is your maintenance history? Those are misfire codes
Wait until your coils/plugs arrive and switch them up. Also, you should check your cat

edit: p0139 https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-trouble-shooting-95/p0139-during-hot-weather-171942/
