Default supra problems weird sounds please help

ok well i have been a proud owner of a 1987 toyota supra for about 2 an a half months now the following mods it has is a new hks non catback exauhst 3" in diameter all the way, new synchros on the tranny, engine rebuilt about 20k ago turbo running at about to 11-12 psi


well on to the weird sounds that i am receving from my car well i was being a dick to my car the other day and well i was going about 55-60 mph and hit about 8 pot holes in a rown going about that speed and so i just litterally stomped on my brakes to where i was just sliding on the rocks well then atfer that the car was fine but then when i parked it to take a break for a few i went back to it and starte dit back up and now when i put my car into reverse and move it backwards i can here like this sound coming from what sounds like the front right of the engine bay and it sounds like air being pushed out like a wooshing sound but no squealing or anyhting like that and the other problem i have is that sometimes when i go into my first gear to get moving my car will sometimes jerk and or stuter when it gets mvoing
well if you guys would have any information to help me out on this problem itwould be really appreciated

That sound maybe an exhaust leak. Are you getting a check engine Light?

sounds like boost leaking from the intercooler plumbing. Check all plumbing connections. And please don't treat the Supra like that again dude.

alright ill make sure to check that and thanks for your help but i was wondering when i was finished cleaning out my engine bay i was being dumb and overlooked that i hadnt plugged one of my spark plugs back in and the car ran for about 5 minutes til i remebered is that going to have any harsh effects on my car and the reason it was taken out is cause water got down into that area and i was trying to get most of it out cause my car was acting horrible when it got own in there the was just putting when i pushed the gas and it felt like lots of power was being lost

ohhh.......that will cause a misfire. Nah it will not affect the engine in a negative way, jus that particular cylinder is not getting any spark to make power and the other 5 cylinders are somewhat under undue strain. .Yeah you will feel some power lost and the car behaves really sluggish and sounds awful.
