No boost :-/

I was driving along (40mph) and had no boost. So I turned off engine and started it again and I had boost again. Was back to normal!

I had the same issue in my last VRS. Any ideas?

TIA

Going to say my old favorite the brake light switch.

Dodgy signal from it tricks the ecu into thinking the cars braking and so cuts power. Could be limp mode in which case a code could have been thrown so worth a scan. Could be the old 17705, check a sticky in this forum and Ross tech website for info.

Didn't you recently change your downpipe? If so, are both the lambda sensors installed and plugged in correctly?

Yeah I did and it's all installed properly.

I'll check the other bits that the other guy suggested too.
