My MSP has a weird little trick it does in cold weather. If I accelerate hard at all, as soon as the turbo kicks in, the car bucks real hard. I've tried pushing thru it, but that doesn't work. Letting off the gas is the only thing that stops it. Again, it only does it in cool/cold weather. I have recently learned my front motor mount is... As my mechanic said, "that thing is ******." I have a new one, but haven't replaced it yet. It appears to have been broken for a while. My car mechanic buddy thinks the broken mount could be causing the bucking, but I still don't understand why it would only do it in the cold, unless the cold air, which turbos like, cause the turbo/engine to kick harder, thus bounce around more. As far as other upgrades, all I have is a Corksport CAI and Turbohoses SMIC/piping. I've also recently installed a boost gauge, which reads a max boost of 10, with an occasional jump to 11. Just giving that info in case it may help.
