Default HELP - FRST *Update - pics*

had a bit little bit of a miss on the turbo for ages now, but loads of people experience the same "kangarooing" occasionally so just learnt to live with it

yesterday was comin into my road and it died when i tried to pull away from the junction, picked up straight away and drove, thought nothing of it.

today just been to uni in it, seemed reasonably fine all the way there

on they way home it started missing, (when i say missing i dont mean dropping onto 2 or 3 it feels like its actually cutting out)

this gradually got worse and worse, as i got home, had to call into my dads works on the way it got that bad, missing whilst of part throttle, no boost or when pulling away from junctions, only way to avoid it seemed to be reving 3500-5500 rpm and it seemed fine.

got that bad near my house that it was coughing and spluttering and popping flames out the back

totally lost as whats wrong with it. any ideas? gonna leave it to cool down and check some bits or wiring etc, but its full to the brim with fuel and i need it for uni as the clutch on the runaround has given up the ghost

any help please
