Are you getting CEL's? Do 2000 rex's have a limp mode guys?
I got no idea, but... "back yardy". Why would you? :/

I just about passed when I read this through lack of oxygen!

1) use some punctuation
2) If you do something, do it right once. eg, your exhaust
3)Check for CEL codes
4) Take it somewhere like STechnic and get them to work it out for you

2000 Gc8 wrx, no power & surging = Air flow meter.

DO NOT try to get it on boost or Boom!

New afm is around $250
