Default motor problems in ep3

ok guys so I'm beating the ep3 around town, and I'm in third full throttle at six grand. when suddenly my car feels like somebody just unplugged a couple coil packs. so I freak out and limp the turd home to find out that everything underhood is ok to the naked eye. four codes where found, cylinder one three and four misfire and random misfire. no other codes where found. my thinking is I popped my head gasket but I was wondering if anyone had any similar problems.

WOW I'm having the EXACT problem (but with 10 codes) with my a2 swapped ep. Check the plugs, one of my cylinders is running rich but I still haven't found out why.
