Pulsing when cold and poor top end
#1
Hi All,
first time in here so be gentle.
I have a standard UK 2001 Impreza Turbo2000....last of the old style I have done about 14,000 miles from new since Jan 01. When it is cold (first 5 minutes of driving)...it pulses we given a steady throttle. It sounds a bit like the turbo is gently try to spin-up and then straight down again. I have also had the occasionally time when given full throttle their has been a loooonnnnngggg delay before the Turbo span up. Finally from new I have not been that impressed with the top end power...that is above 5000rpm it seems to die-off quite a bit compared with what I imagined should happen.
Any Ideas? Have I got a Friday afternoon one? The dealer that has serviced it says their is nothing wrong.
Help appreciated.

You've not bought my old car have you. The hesitating bag of sh!te.
Only thing that cured mine was the PossumLink.
