Is it possible that whatever Nissan/Subaru did to create that initial hump (i like to think of it as MAGIC) is causing the problems? Would this be able to show up on a dyno if one was done while the CEL was/is on? (this is still assuming that my cars condition is the same as this...)
I had the same top end power, still flogged it through the weekend to get around. The dealership said I could
