Explain "using shitloads of fuel".

Also explain "half power"

Both these terms are qualitative, not quantitative.

It should not be the air flow meter, because Blacktops are MAP sensored. You should have no AFM.

O2 sensor can send your fuel out. Map sensor leaky.

Are you running 98 RON fuel in it? Knock sensor can pull timing if it detects too much knock (low RON, dead sparkplugs, dead ignitor, many things.)

is it missfiring? if so check all ignition components and also injectors, fuel pressure etc... you say you are a car noob so you prob wont know if its an electrical miss or not.... if not could be blocked cat/ exhaust component... remove exhaust upstream of cat and go for a drive (somewhere cops arent!) so many possibilities need more info... best off for you to pay someone to look at it
