I need another professionals help

This is going to be a long one so buckle up.

To put it best this car is THE issue but, I'll start with a list of the things I have done and then a list of issues/concerns.

Oem timing kit, autotech hpfp internals, New/Used injectors 4x, overspeed seals, pcv ran to catch can, intake cleaning, valves media blasted, o2 sensors, spark plug, ignition coils, alternator, battery, crankshaft position sensor, camshaft position sensor, map sensor, maf sensor, throttle body, fuel rail, fuel pressure relief valve, fuel pressure sensor, canbus loop, most grounds cleaned, ran through harness, and probably a bunch of other things I am forgetting rn.

Now the issues, I got this car (2008 Mazdaspeed3) about 2 years ago with 153k miles and a bad vvt but I have 4 other mazda projects so this one was a slow burn. I never really got it to run right till about 3 months ago and it was great little to no issues at all other than this u2064 code and a very rare p0300 code (no specific cylinder). Up until a month ago the car ran great till i was driving 30 minutes to town and the car started hesitating up a hill. I datalogged and saw nothing wrong but decided to turn around and head home. The entire drive no codes. Since then I've gone threw and double checked everything, I got a p050a and a p0302. I pulled the plugs and cyl. 2 was definitely a little lean but all still gapped to spec. I decided to run another compression test and leak down test and heres what I got.

Previous numbers-

Compression; 185psi (every cyl) Leak down; 0% (every cyl)

New numbers-

Compression;

Dry:

	Cyl.#1:135psi

	Cyl.#2:145psi

	Cyl.#3:150psi

	Cyl.#4:150psi

Wet:

	Cyl.#1:180psi

	Cyl.#2:190psi

	Cyl.#3:185psi

	Cyl.#4:180psi

Leak down: 0%

Now I'm at a loss, someone please help me find these issues and ask as many questions as you want. I can provide any info and run any test along with datalogs and replacing more parts. (money is not an issue, i have rotaries lol)
