I have had my sti for 3 weeks now, through all the hot weather and now the cold weather. I am convinced however that all is not well with the said car. I think the boost is not as strong as it was when i got it (i don't have a boost gauge to confirm!). Now is it broken or am i just getting used to the speed/power. I did come from a 60bhp polo you know.
cheers for any help

Mine too had a similar disease, driving every day of the week it just seemed as if the engine was slowly getting clogged or something. The cure is quite simple :-
Dont use the car everyday for work etc
Use a turbo diesel Escort for work purposes
Apply right foot in Scooby on evenings and weekends only.
You should find Scooby regains all previous lost power!
