I'd first work out why the boost is spiking so much that it cuts fuel. How is boost controlled at the moment?

Most likely a problem with your boost solenoid. Try cleaning it or get a separate boost controller to set the boost.

Drivers side suspension turret.
Most people on here seem to use brake cleaner fluid down the pipes but i've never done it so don't really know.

hi mate i had the same problem, i would also suggest the boost solinoid. what i done remove all the pipes from the solinoid, then look under the dash (drivers side) and the should be 2 green multi plugs, connect them together and thurn the ingition on (no futher) and all the electricial components should turn over, the give the solinoid a good squirting with cleaner, beware it will squirt out on you!! so have a towel ready! then turn off the ingition and dicsonnect the plugs, reconnect pipes and that sould be a winner! hope this helps barry
