Did you go hard on the throttle and then get limp mode? That's what happened to me when the charge pipe blew apart.

Yup exactly!!!! Hahaha. This f'n car. Love it but I really hate it.

Drives fine until I push it. The wooshing is pretty loud. I hope it's the charge pipe as I have a VRSF in my trunk. Anyway to tell if it's that or something else?

Check the DV on the charge pipe, I've heard of these popping off, could be why you hear the loud whooshing...if it's not broken and you can pop it back on you should be good

pop the hood and look. my bet is charge pipe or DVs. Vac lines you can buy anywhere, Should be $20 for all of them iirc.
