I'd say put back on the stock intake. Aftermarket intakes on stock Wrx's aren't that good. No gains and messes with the MAF sensor and swamps it.

search http://www.nasioc.com . You should find an answer there. But i've heard that there are problems with putting some aftermarket intakes on. But ya...I think that that is the problem.

it never used to do it when it only had the intake on.... only started doing it once the turbo xs chip was installed
