ok so the other night i was out being an idiot as always, i pull out and get on it hit a paint line and bam it hit rev limiter. ever since then now the car has a bad miss but only when its under boost. it idles fine fluids are all fine and when you drive it normal it is also good. but as soon as you floor it and put it under a load it starts to break up. and suggestions where to start?

X2, And replace them!
Maybe after the plug test, see if you tossed a cam follower.

Seen this many times as well, usually the motor is pretty crazy, even at idle, when that is the case...

Head gasket. Seems fine at idle but the increased cylinder pressures with boost push it.

There are more but that's all that was logged!!!
Which is yet another reason why I said to pull the plugs. Anytime an internal motor issue is suspected that is the first thing someone should do. Spark plugs can tell you a lot...

I would think if it was a head gasket, the car would have other symptoms. Higher than normal temps, using coolant. Even if it was a small leak, it could still be checked by wanding the radiator at any emissions station. Ask me how I know...........
i pulled all the plugs out and they all seem to be a consistent color. no werid signs on them i'll put a pic up of one here in a bit... im going to do a compression test next.
