Sounds like a loose secondary plug. Is this an N/A or a TII?

he meant n/a non turbo, but still. don't you think it'd be kinda hard to get to that fast with your problem? an FC that isnt in tip top condition isnt going to get over 120...

check your seconday injectors. they are on a fuel rail on the side of your engine with the air intake (opposite of the spark plug side). usually these start leaking due to age, or the connectors on the spark plugs are bad and aren't making a good connection.
