Default engine tune ?????

Hi guys
being pretty oldish when i was young and ur car wasnt running right u would take it for a crypton tune and they would sort it out ,so my question is wot do u do with new cars, as my 04 wrx seems to have symtoms of needing one ,iv noticed and can feel like when u boot it its hesitant ect , its just had new cam belt and a major service but still same, you guys got any ideas about it
thanks beanys

try getting the ecu reset first maybe better when it has learnt new values, but may also have a sensor problem that might need sorting out.

If this started after cam belt change I'd be concerned that the timing was setup correctly..!

Who did the service/belt change..? I'd be taking it back to them as it could be any number of things, such as above or simply not gaping plugs correctly..!

what fuel you using? lower quality can cause the ecu to remove power etc
