   well it takes a while to start, its like the battery isnt holding charge when it hasnt be ran for a week or something
   
   and then when it starts ive got to to keep reving it or it will just cut straight back out? any ideas?
   
   and when im driving it feels like i loose all power sometimes goes below a rev then i get it all back

   Could be your Alternator.
   
   When mine messed up, it wasn't charging the battery and injection uses a lot of power to run, so because the battery wasn't giving it power and the Alternator wasn't giving that power it couldn't give the Engine enough fuel, so it ran like crap lol.

   good answer this pal! however what would you say if mine did that a few minutes after start-up, after cold start. and then the next minute (and for the rest of the journey) it was okay again and car was delivering fuel as normal??? this has been a long term problem for me and i want to nail it
