+1... although ~11psi does seem low. Combination of "bad" gas + heatsoak?

im leaning twords leak since I only Run Shell V Power and it only does 11 PSI even after driving for a while so Heat Soak might not come into effect.

yeah, a buddy of mine's 02 wrx sounded just like that (leak somewhere with his FMIC). It sounded really sweet because everytime he got on the gas, the leak would become apparent and it was well--unique
