Default Minor turbo problem, or so i hope...

well as most of you know i just got my turbo in a few days ago. And fixed all of the problems that i had. Well, so i thought. Still everything runs fine but i just ran into a little problem today while drivin down the road. I was drivin down the highway, not WOT or anythin just cruisin, and every now and then my car would reduce speed. It felt like i was applying the brake very lightly. It happened about 10 times in my 20 miles of driving. It happened at random also. It didnt happen at any certain time or whenever i did something specific. Does anyone know what can be causing this? I checked all the hoses and nothing seems to be pinched or anything.

Maybe this is stupid but could the intercooler piping be coming loose somewhere? Like at a hose fitting? Just another thought to look for.

ill check that tomorrow too. I never thought that any of the piping would effect my idle. Oh, and also i just went out for a drive, and the check engine light came on so i don't kno what the deal is. It's not my map sensor either since ive got the missing link, so ill have 2 chek on that tomorrow.

Does anyone know if the missing link could effect this? I was just reading up and people who were having idle problems have said that it was caused by the map sensor but i didnt think that would effect it at all.
