Sounds like it's in limp mode. Can't remember how you reset the ECU somebody will be along shortly to say how though.

Only put super unleaded or V-power in your car nothing else

its got a fancey ecu, front mount, air filter ect..

I would try and find out what that fancy ecu is, MAF sensor would be my first port of call after resetting the ecu, clearing the error codes.

mate i know this may be a long shot but when i messed about with my injectors i nipped a seal it gave all the same syptoms not running or boosting smell of fuel and smoke coming out the back

so dont know if you might have a perished seal. if you need to know anymore pm me
