Try the obvious things first such as the drop links for the ARB.
Always worth a look also is the rear n/s exhaust hanger, where it is fixed to the floorpan there is a bolt through a steel sleeve, remove bolt,sleeve, clean up and reassemble using some grease, make sure the bolt is tight enough, sounds very simple BUT it cured the problem on my old MY97 turbo

good luck......TONY

Does it do this under steady take off, or hard acceleration?
