Couldn't believe it, but today the car has now destroyed a vibration damper (main pulley). Managed to get it home with the A/C turned off. Wondering if this is what was causing what felt like misfires.

Once I get this new problem fixed, I will get INPA working whilst driving to watch rail pressure and low fuel pressures.
Dang... it never rains...

The vibration dampener thing seems to happen more in hot climates - not seen one fail down this way or hear much about them from the UK folk either.

Good luck with checking the rail pressures - it would be my next step too. I checked the rail pressures etc. while driving on the Sportage I was working on for my mate. Didn't show anything odd which is why I moved on to looking at the VGT system. Got lucky I think!
