Hey guys just wanting to be pushed in the right direction in regards to this issue I'm having with my BA turbo.

My car has this shuttering feel to it when I plant my foot, it only happens sometimes in between 4000rpm - 5500rpm. It idles and drives perfect otherwise. 
 

Things I've checked/replaced:

• throttle body/sensors

• fuel filter

• vacuum leaks/hoses
• manifold gaskets

• New genuine coils and iridium plugs (re-gapped for 12psi)

•  New Cat 

• BOV

 

anymore ideas or suggestions would be great. Cheers

usually those sorts of symptoms would point to coils and plugs, but you've already replaced those...

 

sounds like it's tuned and the tune is failing at some point due to a sensor overload/malfunction.

Thanks mate. I was thinking the same thing but just wanted some opinions first. I've been through 3 sets of genuine coils, thinking that I may have got a sh*tty one. The mechanic I see in town works on these things all the time and he plugged his scan tool in and seen nothing unusual.
