Hey guys I've racked my brains on this one (and on the UK forum) and still haven't grasped a solution.

Whats happening is:

On acceleration, in any gear, when the revs hit 2000 the car starts to stutter and feels like its not producing power.

An example would be, pull away in 2nd gear and it accelerates fine all the way up to 2000 then stutters, then the power comes back again.

The leads are 4month Magnecors, the plugs replaced in October, filters K&N.

The only thing not replaced is the fuel filter. PCV is fine and cleaned, checked as many vacuum hoses as possible again all fine!

She didn't do this before and only started when I removed my fuel pressure regulator.

Any ideas?
TIA
confused

Sounds like a vacuum leak in your FPR ... pull the upper intake manifold and look at the FPR connections. How many miles on the car?
