Un metered air is getting into the intake side of your engine via a leak. For that particular design of engine leaks can occur easily from the top of the engine between the gaskets, the intake manifold, the PCV valve, the throttle body gaskets...

The implication of this is that the air/fuel mixture will be running extremely lean and this will have huge impact on performance and fuel mileage.
Go for leak diagnostics test using smoke machine ,the smoke machine will reveal the source of leak of unmetered air.

Cylinder 5 misfire which might be responsible for for p300 .
Check the cylinder 5 ignition coil ,plugs ,injector,fuel pressure and if none of the above is not the culprit ,check the intake system for leak and cylinder compression.
