How does the car tick over when you stop? Just looking at your scooby and noticed it's a classic turbo. I had a Blitz filter installed (Coned shaped one) when I owned a 2000, and the first things I started to notice were:

- Slight erratic idle at traffic lights
- More fuel consumption
- Less power

After reading on here discovered that the MAF (Mass Air flow Sensor) on classics are very weak and really should stay on the Stock air-box. In the end I spent £65 on a new MAF and went back tot he stock Air-box and things wnet back to normal.

Have you tried the stock air box just in-case?
