my sri splutters wen the revs build up from 1.5-2.5 rpm then clears up and pulls hard but why does it do it? i have asked the owner before (my mate) and there isnt a rally/sport cam on it or nothing...any ideas?

My GTE cam is code D.
B is a 1300sr cam.

The astra engine probably shares the same cam.

do you think it could be down to the exhaust blowing?

No doubt it. If its a dizy engine check your rotor arm & cap (when were they last changed?) & your spark plugs, gapped to .8mm? Check the leads for any arcing (black sooty deposits at either ends)

Any leaks in the induction tract (trunking upto throttle).

Fuel filter new?

Millions of things to check tbh. Sounds electrical/ignition to me though.

Does it have a distributor, if so, check the ignition timing.
