hello guys little help needed.
if i drive car being easy on the throttle car drives fine.
if i try hammer the throttle its like the car is being restricted.
its had a new fuel rail fitted,
now am i right in saying at the end of the fuel rail there is an adjustable screw if u unscrew it off there is a little valve under it that u can push in to let fuel out, the fuel should come out quiet fast (under pressure) well it doesn't it just trickles out
????????

Thats for checking pressure, it should piss out under heavy pressure.

Is it at any speed in any gear? If so, check spark plugs, dizzy/coil pack, ht leads or lambda sensor.
If it's only in high gears, ie 4th and 5th, check that the alternator bracket that's bolted to the head is earthed properly, apparently this is an easy way to lose current, which would result in a reduced spark.

Yes, and only when the ignition is on as the pump is armed.

try changing the fuel pump relay, the relay on these sends a pulse to the injectors to work properly, or could even be cts (coolent temp sensor)
