Default Turbo B16 Misfire, I think???

I have a turbo b16 in a eg. it has been running fine but recently i have been getting a misfire and really slow turbo spool. i have a double head gasket for lower compression. My question is what could be causing my misfire and how to remedy it? also what causes the slow spool and how to remedy that also.

about a million different things.check/replace all your ignition stuff(plugs,cap,rotor,wires,etc).check your cam and ignition timing.check for good compression.check for any trouble codes.......that'd be a good start.

i recently did a compression test and 2 cylinders were 180 and 2 were 165. distributor was bad so i replaced, and the wires were jumping off the plugs so i changed plugs and wires. but then everything seemed fine and it was pulling as hard as ever. maybe all that stuff is going bad again. and i am not getting check engine codes so i dont know what to do. unless my check engine light is burnt. but im glad some1 responded so thanks alot chris.

how much boost are you running?
what size injectors are you using?
is the motor tuned?
any idea on a acurate A/F ratio?
stock fuel pump?
