I have an annoying splutter on pick up under hard acceleration. I thought at first may be because of having some old unleaded (95) in there from fuel strikes as it was all i could get at the time.

Only showed up now the new mbc is on as its allowing maximum boost.

Its perfectly drivable, its only under real hard boot.

Any ideas? I haven't changed plugs since i got it i guess that would be a good start.

Plug leads are a common splutter. And.....stick to premium unleaded.

I had the same on my auto. Leads were fine while you weren't giving it some, But as soon as you asked anything of them the car spluttered.
