Default i buggered my car

Took of the blitz bov as still not happy as it losing power fitted oem one thought I could reset the ecm by connecting green connectors under dash to reset drove eml light blinking cont. Disconnect drove felt like power torque back to normal as it had done whaen i removed the turbo smart one, but didn't do proper run.
Doing the hospital run only couple of miles over weekend run fuel really low. The car has not driven right since severely down on pull.no torque
I've cleaned boost solenoid. No difference got to go see rich tomorrow put on laptop I hope it's something simple. Gutted only had two weeks. Plus the other thing richardmay be able to tell me! it drinks fuel like an alcoholic drinks meths 180 miles to a tank doing approx 19 to the gallon my other imprezas never drank like that,see what happens
