Its a 2004 wrx wagon. I have a cbe, bov, and turbo timer. I dont know of anyone i could switch maf with.
So i got in there and put a new filter in and pulled out the "air resinator box" and she is running like a dream now. She just couldnt breath!

Also, you can take out the turbo timer. It is useless on these cars.

Should then also be running a LOT better under load, is it?
You can't have everything - where would you put it?
Yes it does... Very much so
Ah, the filter I see. I thought you meant the resonator was the problem.
