Default sohc bad ticking, choppy idle

the other night i might have sat on the limiter for a bit and now my car is ****ed (atleast i hope not). It has a nasty tickin under load throughout the rpms. Also it misses bad at idle and barely stays alive. It has noticable power loss but still drives ok. Lastly it seems as if the intake sound go louder, i have no idea how this could be. Im goin to check my timing tonight, but could it be a rocker arm or valve? what yall know?

Any white or blue smoke coming out the exhaust?

Any Check Engine Lights?

I am having the same issue and it's my Throttle Body, something went wrong randomly and my RPMS are HIGH as hell not low.
but maybe that could help.
