Default car is going friggin insane

I have no clue what the hell is going on, it feels fuel starved, it just started when I pulled up to a light yesterday, it has been idling really rough, bearly above stalling any where from 350-500 rpm and sometimes even lower, it will fall on it's face when trying to drive and has no power whatsoever, the damn thing wants to die all of the time, I put fuel injector cleaner in it today to try and help out, but it has done just about nothing at all. Here are the codes that I have been having since this started.

ok I added fuel injector cleaner with no help... here are all of the current codes

PCM
P0101 H
P0131 H C
P0151 C
P0174 C
P0300 H

TCS
U1016 H

SVM
B1001 H
U1016 H

IPC
U1255 H

RFA
U1016 H

Any help would be greatly appreciated especially considering the fact that this is my dd... btw at some points it has a strong rich smell

My first thought is bad PCM, especially with all those codes. That is not normal.

I had 9 codes on my SS last week and the guy at the shop told me nobody has 9codes at one time and it was most likely a fuse. It was a fuse under the hood. To me it sounds like your spark plug wires or coil packs may be bad. Check those too

All of them though??? is that likely that all of them are going bad?

If you all of the sudden got all those codes like that, I'd bet it's something simple...Hopefully! Good luck!

I had the same problem a week after I bought the car, it was still under the limited warranty so I took it back. I believe the problem was a vacume hose (not positive though) that got a cut in it; the suction in the hose caused the hose to collapse, and caused the same problems your having. I replaced the hose and it didn't fix the problem, so the dealer reprogramed the computer and it fixed it.

My guess is that the air bridge is sucking air after the MAF.
Make sure all connections and clamps are tight near and around the air filter
