Strange sensation at WOT...

[europeanme]

some of you may remember my "fun" trying to solve my running issues a few weeks back..which we did cheers Brian!!..

I now have a rather strange reaction when "I give it some beans"...it almost feels restricted ....or something slowing the car down ever so slightly.....or is this the way it is running closer to the limits of boost pressure (1.4 bar as apposed to 1) or is some thing else 'a-miss'....

any clues/BTDT's etc....

From what threads I have read - & I must say I am no mechanic....

Lots of similar problems seem to revolve around the turbo pipes when they are under pressure - having a leak, whether its a pipe leak or one of the jubilee clips come loose or nipped a pipe....

check your cats if they are blocked, or knock sensors, unless your are getting timing retard for some reason

I thought the cats might be the issue...as it just seemed ever so reluctant on WOT but not noticeably restricted.....it almost feels like 'fluttering'....or very small lurches...

I know it is difficult to give a reason over the internet..but someone could recognise the symptoms...
