it is a possibility the slave cylinder has seen better days.... but are you bleeding it with the slave attached to the gear box still? if so there will be air still at the one end. remove the slave. and point upwards so all air will be removed from slave. if left attached to gear box. it will never bleed fully....

Try that..

It would still run,if you swoped injector connectors,or coil pack connectors,but it wouldn't drive well at all!!
The coil pack connectors are coloured,black at the back,grey at the front.Same for the injectors,dark grey ta the back,light grey at the front.
While the engines running,try disconnecting either a plug or injector at a time,see if they make it run any worse.If theres no change for one ore more,then you have a problem with that cylinder.Could be no spark,fuel or loss of compression etc.

That almost sound like you have an exhaust leak. As the headers connect to the heads,it can sound like a loud clacking sort of noise.Also check the turbo gaskets,i had one of these go,sounded awfull!!
