Evo 1 help, running on 3 cylinders?

Hey guys, car sounds like a suby so to me it sounds like it is running on 3 cylinders. Was cruising around and then was parked up for a few mins and then just started sounding like a suby. i checked the coils, pulled the first one out. no change, second one, idle change, third, car died, fourth idle change. does this sound like coils to you guys, help will be appreciated. dont think it would be the actual engine i just got it serviced and retuned and since it did it on idle

im freaking out because i hope its not the engine

help would be greatly appreciated

PS: just got it tuned and serviced. Tuned 308KW atw on 17 psi, so hopefully its not the engine =[

You're tuned at 17psi? Why?
Mid tune. I dunno, is that bad?
you sure the FPR hose didn't pop off and it's not just idling poorly
you just got it tuned and now its having issues? have you called the tuner?
Yea Ive sent him a email. he doesnt work on sunday so he wont get it till tomorrow, and no hoses have popped off
The coil that has no effect on idle that cylinder is not working for one reason or another you need to find out why check your plug, coil, and possibly comp. test

Its ideling the same sorry it not up and down. just sounds like a suby and has no power while driving

17psi is less boost than the factory tune which is like 20-21psi
Bring it back to your tuner..
and its not that its not idling properly sorry, its just sounding like a suby, it did it on idle i noticed the change in the sound of the car
So this all happened after getting a tune? Take it back and bitch at him, he obviously screwed something up. 17psi isn't enough boost, stock is ~20
so does it not sound like the coils or leads??
