They found out the car was running improper AFR's on bank1 and bank2 due to a exhaust leak. I know you said you check for them but just be 100% sure cause I think that's what my problem was.
Come to think of it, I did notice a slight hiss whenever I lifted off the throttle last week. It went away so I didn't think anything of it. The Borla CBE has slip joints, maybe one of them came loose a bit. I guess I'll have to double check and re-tighten. Hopefully this fixes it.

On a separate note, do you go to the Wed night meets at RAD? I've been meaning to go but the weather has been crappy and/or I've been too busy to go.
