Hi mate welcome to S.O.C 

I see you're from Sheffield I would recommend ringing Martin who's on here at Sheffield Subaru Services he's a top bloke won't charge you anything unless he does work on it and will advise you on the phone. Top guy I even do a 178 mile round trip to have work done by him. 

 

But I will asking has the car been modified i.e has anti lag on it ? 

Not heard of a car just shooting off when driving unless it has been tuned for it.

hi mate

martin is spot on at Sheffield Subaru Services, he's the only person i trust with mine, been using him for over 5 years

 

i had a similar problem with my blob, i would press the accelerator and nothing happened, then press it a bit more and it would jump to nearly WOT. it was the throttle body that was sticking. once it was at 2k rev's or above it was fine though

I think it is throttle body thou because if i adjust it so its high revving its fine but al let martin look at it , u dont have a diagram of how the oil feeds go to the turbo do you as the previous owner bypassed it for some reason
