Following on the Early Sunday Morning Runs, I'm putting together a route around the Southern Oxfordshire and North Berkshire on Early Sunday Morning of the 28th October
Start Pointing will be around Reading (TBC) and will include somewhere for a good hearty breakfast

Yep and now have a New Prodrive Turbo Inlet hose and a Prodrive Intercooler hose and still the same problem. Yesterday it was ok but today just would not go at all.

Have you checked the Wastegate Frequency Valve? It sounds boost related as the ECU has stuck it into limp mode. Pull the ECU fuse out and leave it out for a minute or 2 and then plug it back in. It may be able to clear whatever faults you have in the system.

Keep an eye on the MAF sensor too!
