also, the three hoses that run into the black intake pipe have been hacked into 2 on my car-
but yeah, the electrical thing?
If you are talking about the pipe I think you are (AFM to turbo) one of those is the feed for the idle control valve...
If that is not drawing air past the AFM it may cause erattic running at idle... the slower engine speed, along with maybe a weak battery or altenator may account for the power drain???
Have you checked for any "open" vac lines? or listened around for air leaks??
Also another 7M fave is water around the plug tops!
I would also say give the earths and altenator contacts a quick once over...
