Misfire under moderate to heavy boost, ticking when cold, and general ickiness

[EfiniX]

Car was sounding odd, like the exhaust note had changed. I got on the gas and had a fairly substantial misfire. The ticking I had attributed to lifters (even with the 2g's, there was always a slight tick), but it had gotten louder.

Protip: When torquing spark plugs, 4#'s is materially different than 14#'s.

(and yes, I should be doing hand-tight + 1/4 and this sort of thing doesn't happen, but damn it, I've got a torque wrench and I'm going to use it! ... incorrectly...)

# before it became so hip, use to be called a pound sign. Can't tell if troll or serious.

Should be foot pounds though
