Pulled each lead out 1 by one and the running gets worse so that's the ignition side ok, not tried a different set of plugs yet because 1, i don't have a set to hand and 2, cos the miss is that bad, you'd expect the end of the plug to be missing!! I have taken them out, cleaned and heated them though!
Every now and again it pops and there's a big air rush back from the charge carrier ( no top intercooler pipe fitted! )

Was thinking of checking the followers next, see if they have emptied themselves ( the engine's not really done much work for 8 months! )
get some 8m leads and cossie plugs, make sure the spark plugs are gaped correct,

and it should run fine, failing that your running lean
