Hi all
I replaced head gasket. Now the car pulls ok up to 4000rpm but then it gets sluggish. The turbo spools up quick enought tho. Any ideas?

Check if the vacuum pipes are connected as fuel pressure rises when in boost and if the fuel pressure reg pipe is off pressure will be low........can also be fuel pump but as you had the head off you might have forgotten to put back a vac pipe or two.
