put 1/4 can sea foam in with oil 3 weeks ago... changing oil this week (doesn't need it for 1500 more but don't like the foam in it want new oil in it)

car is missing and fouling out at higher rpm sometimes it sputters like i'm hitting the rev limiter. happens more when ac is on. is throwing a code i'm getting it checked tuesday.

Your O2's are definitely overdue to be changed. The ported MAF is not helping; the tune you're running doesn't take into account the changes to the MAF therefore your air/fuel ratio is off.
