Default Civic won't start after some weird problem.

My car ran fine, after being parked for about 3 hours, I started my car up and it wouldn't rev past 1,200 RPM, and my engine was idling irratic and rough "knocking", i looked under the hood, and my fuel pressure was at at 36PSI after the fact i set it to 32PSI, my instrumental light brightness was fluctuating bright and dim, and i stepped on my gas pedal at full throttle and my car only idled about 200RPM more... kept pressing it again and again, i figured my car's fuel line got clogged from driving it with a nearly empty fuel tank for a fuel days... however, my car eventually reved passed that area, then it was working fine again so i put gas in my car. the next morning, i've tried to start my car again and the same occurence happened... this time, when my car broke loose from reving at 1,200, it reved to 6,000 RPMs and then lots of smoked exited the exhaust and my car just died out and it wouldn't start anymore.

I have a MSD SCI and the MSD Blaster SS Coil, no spark occuring from the Coil. Could the coil be the cause of the problem? or the MSD SCI? or the car's Powertrain Control Module (ECU)? Has anyone else had a similar problem?

Trouble codes shown were for Cylinder 1,2,3,4 misfire, and Catalyst System Threshold Inefficiency
