Today I was driving my mk1 when i put the accelerator pedal right down it doesnt fully boost and It struggles to climb the revs after 4000rpm when this happens then the engine management light starts flashing while the car misfires and splutters etc.,
but if its just before the pedal is half way down it runs fine,

i have just changed the coil pack and spark plugs and leads now im clueless can anyone help me?

Is it the right coilpack for the rs?.im thinking there could be a split/hole in one of the pipes?? Or check that the bar hasn't come off the turbo wastegate????, mine had the other month!!!, it was slow as anything!!!, the "horse shoe" shaped clip had broken off, wear and tear and hot/cold over the years!!!, it cost me nothing!!!, I went to my local ford dealer to get this "clip", but sadly, it comes complete with a new turbo!!!!!.you can't get the clip on its own!!!!, but I was lucky, as a replacement turbo for a focus under warranty, had been changed and this old turbo which was going back to ford main office has a new one on it!!!!, the parts guy said, take the clip its yours!!!, nice one a "freemans" from ford!!!, but what a "pig" to fit! !!, that's my idea on your problem, best of luck pal!!.;-).
