Default spluttering and not revving properly

car is a v3 sti with simtek and few mods
and after finally starting it i warmed it up for around 20min (it was parked up for around 2-3weeks)
when i was about to pull off,it wouldnt pik revs up and would only rev to 3krpm and revs started dropping when foot was down so once i let go of revs it idled where it should...
iv had new plugs in and gapped,also serviced it recently
anyone had similar problems?
could this be a knock sensor?

help please as im getting very frustrated looking at it and not being able to drive it

thanks in advance

You wont be able to connect the plugs under the dash with the symtek ecu, sound like the crank sensor but best getting it checked with a pro i ended up replacing every sensor on mine when i had probs, would have been cheaper to have handed it in to someone who deals with simtek ecus.
