sounds to me like a coupler came loose on some of your piping. check all your couplers.

Compression Check and Leak Down Test
1. When you turn the ignition on do you hear the fuel punp?
2. Have you check all your intercooler pipes and couplers make sure its not loose/cut/or a hole any where?
3. Vaccum leak, check all ur vaccum sources
4. Check ur oil, does it seem like you hvae lost alot of oil?
5. Try stock injectors, see if you get anything you could of had ur injectors fail

Doesn't matter if they are new or not, if you were running a bad tune, the best pistons in the world won't hold up. Please, just get the leak down test done. This will tell you if it's serious or stupid problem and it only takes 10 minutes to do.

I'm not bad mouthing the tune specifically, but a failed component (injector, boost controller, wastegate spring, pressure sensor, o2 sensor, ignition sensor, loose wire on emanage) or a emanage glitch could cause the motor to run out of tune after it was tuned.

I'm sorry to keep asking for this, but get a leak down test, if it comes back good, then it shouldn't be a serious problem. If it comes back bad, well... that's bad.
