Secondly, the ECU is probably richening up the mixtures due to the modifications. It's a well known fact that MY01 onwards needs a retune to gain the most benefit from any modifications, unlike the GC8 series,

Thirdly, an external vent BOV is robbing you of power too, if you're running a stock, untuned ECU.

My recommendation is:
- Fit a plumb back BOV.
- Get it checked over to work out where the shuddering is coming from.
- Reflash the ECU to make the most of your mods.
listen to this person.... i would go see ASG and get them to do a service and tune on it...

it will be like a brand new car after that
