Default pinking, det, rattle?

car playing up earlier today quite low on fuel..

missfiring and would boost or accelerate with load.
would rev ok though...

I was stuck to about 45 mph in 5th cos if I tried to go over there was a heavy metallic rattling sound and no power..

not experienced it this extreme after only having NA or TD cars for years?

is it the engine killing sound of det or could it be something actually more mechanical?

wouldnt even make enough to hit 1psi.


(oh FRST management btw :cry:)

engine is coming apart this WE anyway but obviously want to know what it could be now.
