Default mystery motor problem, somobody help me......

The FI guys couldn't help me, can anybody in here?

Okay, last week i posted about my motor sounding funny, kinda like a machine gun and a little black smoke coming from the pcv breather. It was suggested that i had blowby and to do a compression test. Compression test results were perfect, 200 across the board, on previous tests i had a little higher compression, but either way 200 all around made me happy. So, i replaced all 4 plugs and looked at the old ones. They are all black and the #3 cylinder had some greenish tint to it, i know that means something, what is it? After i replaced the plugs i went for a drive and the sound was still there. What could this be? Keep in mind, everything else seems perfect, oil psi, water temp, in boost it pulls normally (except for the damn noise). I need help here, thanks for any suggestions.

Here's the link to what else has been discussed (sort of).... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=312579

if there is "green" on your plug then it may be coolant. you may have a small leak in your head gasket. If your boosting then the smallest of holes will lead to this.. anyone else have an idea?
