What, do you think this is a N/A machine? Why did you get an intake? Why didn't you just stick with a HKS or K/N panel filter? Your actually robbing yourself of HP than actually gaining it, but i bet your turbo sounds louder huh...
Do yourself a favor, lose the intake and go back to stock or drop in panel filter.

excuse me arthimetic, hes asking for help, not ur personal opinion on wether on not he should have an intake. if he wants an intake let him have an intake. its been dyno shown that intakes actually do make more horsepower then stock when properly tuned. maybe that is why he got one. just because u cant afford an evo doesnt mean u have to knock other peoples modding path. do us a favor and step the hell out of this thread.
now onto ur question, make sure u check all the hoses, also make sure ur BOV is tight and not leaking as u might have a boost leak. it has to be something slipped off or isnt tight or on right as i have the same system in my car and it pulls hard all day long. so make sure u double check everything!!!
