Injection system malfunction and Misfire cylinder 2

I have a 2004 Mazda Rx-8 with around 43,000 miles on it. For the past couple days it has been acting strange under acceleration and stuttering when the throttle is applied. Also the car is having a hard time maintaining speed via the cruise control. The car seems to have a lack of power and the problem gets worse the further up you go in the rpm range. The title of this thread is the codes I got when I pulled the codes from the OBDII port. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks in advance for your help.

No, I purchased the vehicle used, so I am not sure if the original ones are still in the vehicle. Will the spark plugs cause it to throw and injection code?? I figured that would be more ignition as I thought it was the spark plugs till I saw that.
