Default Tune Issue?

I seem to have had a slight problem since Saturday night with the WRX. I went for a cruise through the hills and used Antilag for some parts of it.

Sunday was fine, Monday was fine but yesterday afternoon I was waiting (5 minutes) to cross a over 2 lanes to go up the other half of the dual carriage. I seen a gap in the traffic and give it some to get into the middle.

Then I take off from the middle and it felt as if I'd blown a cooler pipe off, but the turbo would still slightly spool, but not as well as normal. Anyway, Jim and I put it on the hoist this afternoon and found there was a vacum line had popped off a T-piece. We put this back on and it seems to have solved the problem, although now it pops alot more.

I also drove around for around 2-3 weeks with a standard exhaust when I got it licensed and have had the aftermarket exhaust on for 1 week. It's got a pretty strong rich smell when idling. It needs tuning but could anyone think of any reason why this happened? I'm stumped.

I'm running a Autronic in it. Any help would be appriciated.

Jason.
