My car was doing the exact same but since having a few mods fitted and then being mapped has cured the problem.

i think mine needs a remap like u say.Its had a few mods ie straight throu exhaust no cats.I have not owned it long and the previous owner did not look after it so i guess its never had a remap to cover the mods.Scooby clinic offer a remap and kit for 700-800 quid might phone up about that.The misses will have my left bollock for it but hey ive got a kid so i dont need it.
