if it pops and bangs when you boost it could be the ECU cutting the fuel due to overboosting....

needs a setup it sounds like mate

Yup, now you mention that it sounds like it's overboosting, is the car not chipped? Does it have a boost gauge? You need to know what boost its running because it sounds like the ECU is shutting the car down.

boost can rise a few psi in cold weather!! if it's boosting to over 7 sometimes, then add on a bit for cold weather and it could be hitting boost cut whats that 10 or 12psi i forget.

mine does that when she starts like its not running on all cylinders then shes ok drive off and come on to boost and it sounds like anti lag might try new ht leads to see if that works
