I used the old fashioned screw driver trick to hear if the injectors are clicking. My car was sounding like a boxer, i pulled cylinder 3 wire and it didnt change the idle. Compression was 150. When i listened on the injectors, cylinder 1,2 and 4 were a soft tic, and 3 is an extremely loud tapping noise. could that mean a bad injector?
 
If you pulled cylinder 3 and didn't change idle then it could be the plug, the wire, or injector. I moved my bad injector to another cylinder and the issue followed to that injector
Ill see what happens. I have spark good compression and brand new plugs. So idk. This issue only occurs under 2nd gear full boost. Then it goes away after 5 minutes and runs normal.
