While sitting in your car you can hardly hear lifter tick, it's almost the same volume as the injectors. Since you metioned that it's sluggish, lower RPMs at idle and shakey during acceleration it sounds like you spun a bearing. Your description is almost exactly what a spun bearing really sounds like. The only way to find out is to drop the oil pain and take a peek.
Have you had any problems with oil leaks or low oil pressure ever?

matt is correct, thats exactly what happened to the car he owns, it got sluggesh, stalled, ran again, and seized less than 1 mile later, verdict spun rod bearing and scorched cylinder walls. We are open for business and would be happy to take a look at your car.
Give the office a call tommorrow after 11am.
Another option is a broken balance shaft belt, but that wouldn't usually make it stall really bad, and that usually happens after a high rev/miss shift, or due to mileage.
We can do some diagnostic work for you.
