Default i have problems

ok my car is playing up again and i need your help to diagnose it.
here goes you just touch the throttle it accelerates fine,put your foot down and there is a hestation at about 3-4 thou rpm,then as the turbo hits only .7 bar it hits what feels like fuel cut when this happens the boost gauge goes up sharply then down and the rev counter also dropssometimes a little sometimes a lot depending on the amount of throttle you give.
please help need it running right have a long drive in a few weeks.

Spark plugs or coils would be my first guess
