how far into boost does it start doing it? it's unlikely to be fuelcut. Fuelcut has a similar feeling to slamming the brakes on. could be missfiring, caused by plugs, leads, distributor or rotor arm

yeah sounds like a misfire not fuel cut, every 1 replies fuel cut these days to a running rough answer lol, take our ur plugs and clean / regap them.

check dizzy cap etc for wear! will be along these lines

Yep, check the plugs, rotor arm and leads. Mine did the exact same thing, shuddered when it came onto boost and made a low rumble sound. My first thoughts were the turbo was knackered. Checked the plugs and that solved it.

It made mine sound like a subaru! I just cleaned some crap of the plugs and it was fine, so don't worry too much.
