    ok, well I'm less drunk now & a little less tired, so I'll have another go, here's basically all the things I can think of that could be causing a power lack, some have been coverered already, and some may not be relevant, but I'll mention them anyway:

    *blown headgasket
    *burnt/leaking valves
    *worn rings
    *oxy sensor
    *cooling system not working effectively
    *brakes locked on to some degree
    *faulty coil
    *faulty ECU
    *Faulty Airflow meter/map sensor
    *engine earths
    *flat battery (may not be providing enough power to the ECU)
    *blocked injectors
    *fuel pump
    *fuel filter
    *ignition timing
    *faulty distributor
    *faulty leads
    *spark plugs could be incorrect heat range
    *restricted air cleaner
    *stretched/poorly adjusted throttle cable
    *vacumn leak
    *blocked exhaust
    *worn camshaft/s
    *maybe also investigate the possibilty of a slipping auto, or worn clutch

    Gab

    EDIT: I dont know that much about turbos but maybe one isnt spinning freely or something? is it boosting up properley?
