Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

97 L CEL, low on power

Well, my beloved finally gave me a problem after 8 years and ~110k.

Started at a light on a freeway onramp, bogged just for a split second (from a dead stop), then came back. runs fine till about 3800rpm and then it feels like it has very little power after that. car idles fine, doesn't miss. exhaust sounds the same, no smoke etc. didn't have time to dig any deeper as i was on my lunch, dropped it off at home .

2.2, 142k

any ideas? (with the lack of information provided? )

well, didn't have time to dig at it. just hoping its something stupid like an 02 sensor. if not, ill trade it in and take the minimal cash. the only crappy part is ive got the eibach/kyb/ whiteline mounts/links/ 24mm adj bar in it. i might grab the bar and mounts and try to sell those,

oh, found an 05 wrx, 5300 miles, for $21k.... sooo it looks like i may be getting rid of my beloved L. just waiting to see what the finance comes out at.
