Bugeye boost problem???
Over the last month or so i've noticed that i tend to get a kick in power at 5K revs, below this it builds smoothly. The only mods are a panel filter and racebox rear silencer.
Could it be something has finally freed itself or that something is now sticking?
Thanks in advance.

A stick/faulty Neutral Position Switch makes the AVCS stop operating, so the car feels really smooth if a little gutless, when the NPS starts to work again, the AVCS kicks in and you will feel a surge as the cams alter their timing.

i had this on my bug had a look and found a split vacum hose! the power was there but not properly as if it was running half boost then it really hit in at around 5k as if the turbo was making full boost then.

In front of the drivers strut, remove the cover being held in with two plastic screws. Your boost solenoid is blue. Unplug it, then unbolt it and remove vaccum pipes.
