I think you guys are on to something!!! as it did it today even on lower revs SO whatever it is seems to be getting worse which could definatly point to a faulty spark plug or cable.

cheers chaps

I'd second this thought or suggestion. If you haven't done all the routine maintance stuff recently. I'd just go and do it. Plugs, wires, filters, etc. You'll spend 100 something on that stuff, and could fix your problem. If not, at least you know that the stuff is good, and continue testing other possibilities. But with trouble shooting, it's usually better to replace the cheaper stuff, and more routine tune up stuff first, then move on to more specific and costly parts.

I was thinking about a problem I had similar to this. It also affected my
gas milage. I found the oproblem to be fuel ignition failure, basicly my
spark plug wires were not doing there job anymore. I replaced them and the
problem went away. What I understand was happening was that under boost, the
spark was so weak that it would not ignite the fuel mixture. It did not seem
to do it except when the turbo was kicking in.
Maybe??

Sounds like it could be a plug or cable problem. When I installed
my engine I replaced both but had what I would describe as a backfire
in the intake manifold and a slight miss. Had a bit of a problem
finding it but it was a bad plug, a brand new NGK that had a small
black line on the insulator. It would fire but when boost came on and
it was harder to fire it was breaking down.
