04 WRX detonation/loss of power
is anyone out there having the same problems as me? I'm feeling a loss of power between 3.5k - 6k rpms. It feels like it's hesitating and I am also hearing detonation occuring in this range. If anyone else is experiencing this pm me or post a reply.

where were you getting your gas? don't go to le-cheapo gas stations they will sell you 87 oct at 91 prices when was your last service on the car? who many miles on the car? how hard have you run the car i've heard of guys melting the up-pipe cat almost shut ...
i get my gas at chevron on orangethorpe and walker. I have about 2500 miles and I just got an oil change like two days ago. I don't run her hard at all. I still baby her around.

have an 04 wagon, about 2500 mi, runs fine and have switched gas brands from valero, chevron and even costco...but i would not try that again, i would just probably stick to chevron and later maybe try 76
the dealer should take care of it and that turboback idea is not bad at all, thinkin about doing that as well
hope your scoob is fine now
