check your turbo hoses haven't split or delaminated. It sounds more like an air intake fault than a fuel fault. It's likely that your turbo hose has colapsed on the inside causing it to strangle the engine.
 
Hi ratty

the front turbo hoses delaminated and colapsed cheers for your help:)

No probs.:) Depending on how long you are keeping it for you may want to upgrade to silicone hoses. They're a lot more pricey but don't delaminate.;)
