what nos of t/box

Not too sure i understand what you mean by this??

The turbo boost kicks in at lower speeds and if I am at 40 in 4th will pull happily with turbo up to 55 when i have to change to 5th. Turbo is still there but almost as though the engine has no more guts left.

Have you checked the fookin sedimenter yet!

Yep done that today, little bit of crud but not too bad...

Have you taken your handbrake off?

Sorry

just about manage that one!

OK update so far...

Fuel from tank to engine all seems ok, all pipes/filters/sensors checked and changed
Air in and out, all pipes/filters/sensors checked and cleaned or changed.

So I am on the hunt for a Hawkeye or Nanocom to see if that sheds any light on the prob.... If anyone is local to Dorking/Horsham and wants some free beer in exchange for them telling me if there are any faults - let me know

OK found got a local garage to hook it up to a Solus, there was an over boost and EGR error showing.
EGR removed so I guess that error is normal.
Overboost error removed and didn't come back after a quick test run, got them to double check waste gate etc and they said it seemed ok.

Problem is still there, so what else causes over boost?

maybe the person before you had the car governed, is it ex army or from the forces, you may find a bolt on the throttle pedal check the pedal goes right to the floor and if it does get some one to hold the pedal to the floor (with not car off and check the throttle valve is opening all the way.
