Sorry not really explained it there. its like when approaching an island for example if the revs drop to about 2-3k rpm and i want to pull away i have to press the pedal softly otherwise it just splutters and coughs. I think it might be overfuelling but not sure

I had a very simular problem wen i hit a small bump in the road and i later found out was down to a loose earth on the fuel rail...
Does it sound like a scooby and really bog down

Not really mate. I think my exhaust has got a few holes anyway so sound load as it is. the engine also has a FSE fuel regulator and cams and a unichip if that helps
