So set off to work this morning and all was well.stop't at shop and when i started car up it was trying to cut out,reved it a bit seamed to go ok,about a mile up road it started being lumpy like wanting to stall again and no boost and when you tried putting foot down instead of turbo kicking in it feels more like something is tightening up if that makes sense.any ideas guys.not changed anything on car apart from a new gasket on bov on fmic and tightened all clanps on intercooler piping as they all seamed to be loose.

I take it no warning lights? Maybe some gunk in the fuel... sounds very similar to what happened to my brother, was water in the fuel... maybe fill up your tank and fire some redex through and see if that helps? Certainly is the cheapest thing to try :D

no warning lights mate and nothing on code reader,will give it a run to petrol station and try what you said,i check't oil and coolant and all is ok and can not see any pipes off or anything,so will give redex a shot.
