I'm pretty sure that's one of the signs of soft valve springs.

it will turn to sh*t high in the rev range then after taking foot off the throttle the car will run like a dog and revs will jump about and eventually it will settle out after a few seconds... well that's what I was told if springs start to get soft

Yes the revs drop to quick. If you give it a caning and pull up at the lights and the revs die in the arse its usually valve springs. Hard to get a decent tune with softies.

Just got the car back after the new springs were done and all the surging has gone ,well so far anyway.
