I l believe there are few folks who discovered that the cam sensor went bad, and yet tripped no CEL or even pending codes. Another possibility is clogged cats -- unlikely if unmodded, but recently someone on here had that happen, allegedly on an unmodified N/A car, so assuming no key details were excluded, it can happen.

Finally, battery voltage and alternator or worth confirming are 100%

I doubt massive vac leak unless revs high intermittently and then splutters, or idle is low and or unsteady. Or, it's so massive, you should trip a CEL for a high fuel trim -- possible, but I'm leaning towards something else.

Also, AT or MT?
