since you're gonna take it to paul to get tuned later on when you put the turbo on, just give him a call. he'll know what to do.

+1 wrxisthebest. i called paul at DB TUNED and he thought it was a vacume leak. he told me to come in and get it on a smoke machine. dont have $40 to do it so i took off my intercooler again everything looked fine put it back on and boom everything worked. she runs like a beast now love the sound love everything about it. it had to be a leak somewhere around the intercooler but hey its fixed and i love it. thank you everyone for their input it really help when you have people you can talk to about this **** because my girlfriend doesnt understand a word im trying to say. so thank you to everyone!

i would have to say that ur BPV hose was the culprit! the hose that goes from ur bypass valve back to ur intake usually is the one that causes the problems!

Ok, ok ok. I just made an exact post in another thread about this. But it happened only when my cool air intake got wet after a HUGE storm.....It did the exact same thing. Only difference is...sometimes it jumps really bad. mostly in 1st gear though....

should i check for leaks or?
