oh no ive lost power...!

my 05 wrx is running at 283bhp. Went out in it today and when the car was nice and warm i put my foot down

. To my surprise it didnt boost up as it should and almost feels like its gone back to its standard 220bhp. The turbo still boosts up and the dump valve still works so whats the problem???

Any advice would be great

cheers guys

Sounds like the car has gone into Limp Home Mode,the ECU does this if there is a problem with the car. Did you have any warning lights come on.
