Steady on old boy. Giving it a "btt" after just a couple of hours is a little inconsiderate, especially at that time of night.

There could be any number of explanations for what you're experiencing - it'd help us if you could describe what's going on a bit more clearly.

As a general point though, induction kits are a bad idea on these cars, especially the 99/2000 model years, and a potential cause of rough running and, in extreme cases, engine damage. If you've still got the original airbox, filter and resonator it'd be well worth your while refitting them and seeing what, if any, effect, this has on the symptoms.
