Yea, i'm probably gonna jus take it to XAT and let them check everything out. I have a few cans of seafoam in my garage so i might go ahead and jus do that, get an oil change, nd a tune up and see if things get any better. Thanks for the help everyone

dude you havent even tried looking at it more than a quick glance have you? you own a 240 now. you're going to have to learn how to troubleshoot yourself because this kind of shit happens quite frequent.

does the car sound like a wrx when you accelerate or does it sputter randomly through 1k-4k?

it doesnt sputter, it just doesnt accelerate smoothly. There's like a delay when you hit the gas, its really weird. I've been sick so i havent really felt like checkin anything out. So i figured i'd jus be lazy for now and see if anyone knew what the prob might be lol. I'm not very mechanically inclined, so its not like i can jus pop the hood and identify the problem jus by looking at it. I mean i'm not an idiot, i know most of the basics, just not extremely knowledgeable about every little thing to do with the function of an engine. I'm basically just lookin for a few pointers of what to check for.
