Over fuelling (too much = bad) oh and I hope the "anti lag" was on a private runway as its illegal to use on the road

As Tony said more than likely overfuelling. Too much and it can lead to bore wash which will kill your pistons, that rattle should be investigated forthwith as it could be serious.......

I had something similar on my old wrx I had forgot to tighten the dump valve fully when I fitted intercooler it let air out and hence car over furled massively so could be a leak somewhere after the maf
