Who did the cambelt change? I would check the timing settings on the cams, as a tooth or two out will definately affect power. :y

I don't know as it was done before I bought it but I was told it was someone off here that did it.but as soon as it hits 3000 it is like a different car.

Nope, physically check each one. Front one is down between bag pipes, forget where the back one is, passenger side back of plenum iirc

I've checked the multirams and the back one on the engine is open at tickover. How do I fix it? The front is fine tho....
