might be low compression on that cylinder, or no fuel to it.

getting on a stock B7 like that is bound to screw something up after a while. I doubt it would be a clogged injector due to the speed you were going, but you could check anyway. The headgasket might have gotten messed up, so check your oil for coolant, and another possibility that comes to mind is shot piston rings in which case youd be burning oil.
