Haven't had time to properly diagnose, but on way to work (why not on way home! Grr.), boosting 1 bar in 5th, all sweet as usual, come to pull off to junction and car flatlines. No bangs/clatters/mechanical noises, just missing a cylinder it feels like. Come to a stop and car stalls. Restarts and definitely missing, as can drive but jutters regular. Sad
Can see cloud out back when drving, but not white or blue (car behind shining lights through me fog!), just looks like fuel.
Limped it to my parents and left it there.
restarted it to check, again no mechanical sounds, just pillowy noises of i guess unburnt fuel going out the back.
Am hoping electrical, HT/Dizzy/CAS/Injector, or maybe daughterboard has popped off ECU (but it's not in limp mode).
Will know for sure tomorrow, but ATM pretty gutted.. just as i'm thinking of selling her on, she spits the dummy No

I/c pipe has come off some where. Or maybe a shim or rocker has jumped.

Something similar happened me with the R when a pipe blew off at where the bailey dump valve was connected that i was running at the time.
And again with an ic pipe on a different car with the wrong pipe clip fitted at the inlet of the intercooler.
As dan says definitely worth checking.

girl mode over lol
I/C pipe had blown off exit of FMIC!!
Shipped all me tools, trolley etc to 'rents, and all i needed was a 13mm spanner (THANKFULLY!).

Car running normal again, hopefully no damage incurred nursing it home like that.
First time anything like that happened, was sure regular miss was piston. Guess i'll know next, although i think shes going for sale now. Needs someone to run it more than i do!

Thanks all, spot on I/C piping..
