Angry Missing/Choppy Acceleration

I've got a 2002 WRX, Stage 1 Vishnu, blah, blah, blah...


Lately, I have been experiencing a miss every now and then at crusing speeds and also a noticably choppy acceleration, especially in 2nd gear. I have about 47,000 on the car, new fuel filter, new air filter, and new plugs from Vishnu. I have never flashed a CEL, ever. Any ideas? Seems to have lost some of its usually awesome part throttle acceleration, and maybe even some top end.

I want my power, smoothness back!!!

Have you checked for any loose intercooler hoses?

Nope. I will try that though. I doubt that is the issue, as it makes constant, full boost in ever gear (of course 1st and 2nd its lower). I will post back after I check.
