any help welcome,...1993 classic import wrx only thing i have thats not standard is a apollo air filter.

driving on low revs it is missing and puffing black smoke out and sometimes a small back fire.
on tickover its looks like the engine as a small shudder.
high revs its ok

changed the turbo still same.
just after some advise before i buy coil packs and plugs

MAF is obvious culprit with those symptoms.

TPS, because it's cheap, could be worth investigating/changing...

Try resetting the ECU with the connectors under the steering column, before going any further.......
