Your welcome to come over if you want to have a drive of either of mine to compare to yours in how it feels/goes.

Hi Simon, appreciate that, I'm in Maidstone so not a million miles away. The replacement boost control valve has arrived today so hoping that is the root of all the slugishness. I'd like to think I've been over most of the hoses apart from the main intercooler pipes tucked away at the bottom of the radiator area.

What were the problematic areas on your boost wise?

It'll probably be the weekend before I get to have a proper play with mine but I'll post any updates here and keep those that are interested in the know.

Thanks again
