I still have this problem with the Engine Pulling and Juddering and Engine Cutting out at idle!
Iv changed Manifold, Both lambda Sensors Even took it to Citroen today they were most unhelpfull and wouldn't sort anything out for me!
they obviously wouldn't do anything because of the mods!
So im thinking of putting the Std cams Back completely then taking the car in!
I cant work out whether its anything to do with the cams or not.
Sounds like ur cars got man flu if u ask me!! It sucks that most citroen places won't touch modded cars, its still a citroen after all, just with better parts.

By the sound of it its the cams. My friend had a similar issue on his 106 gti but a remap sorted that issue.

rite... when it first starts playin up, il have the accel pedal lets say half way, then there will be not much power, then a couple of seconds after without moving the position of the peddle the power will come...
it does this all the time mainly in 1st and 2nd.
then it starts gettin worse and stalling at nearly every stop and idle..
then the eng man light will come on a couple of days later! when the light comes on its undrivable, just no power at all!
6 times now this has happened to me! been towed 4

Yea sounds like the same mate!
Although my Engine light isnt on. Citroen cant tell what it is as the Light isnt on!
I need the MAF sensor to fail completly before i take it in!
Although u can clean them apparantly!

I had similar symptoms when i had my vts kept cutting out and would not idle properly, turned out to be the throttle position sensor, they found this out after changing just about everything else including the injection ECU.
