I wish I had this car to work on. I'm guessing it's leaning towards EVAP system. Take it to shop

^^^ This guy is pointing you in the right direction. I also read somewhere that it can be caused by a bad gas cap. (Not sure if this is true) Might want to inspect it seeing as a gas cap not on properly can cause a code, but doesn't explain the other problems.

You have two problems. The first is in the EVAP system:
P0453 is the EVAP (Evaporative Emissions) System.
DTC P0496: EVAP System High Purge Flow

The 2nd problem is causing the stutter/low acceleration.
P2138 may be the throttle position sensor.

Guess = a small evap leak in/near the cap or filler tube. The throttle assembly may need to be rebuilt/replaced.
