s'not mean (i know you're just kidding), but it's hard to diagnose cars just with a description. There are multiple things it can be... so we suggest the most probable and move from there. My guess is a boost leak or low compression.

it's not that big of a deal. A million directions you can go if that happens . Who knows you might find it fun to tear apart the engine and rebuild it. Perhaps just a ring upgrade will fix it.

Like I told you yesterday, do a boost leak test and stop speculating. Let us know the results of the boost leak test and maybe we will be able to help you from there.

If you haven't already, get EvoScan and a Tactrix cable and log a few runs. See if you are getting any knock.
