Remap and get rid of the bleed valve - or put it back to standard.

It will be running lean if an induction kit is fitted without a remap that is a very bad idea as is the manual boost controller either put it back to standard or get a remap. Mine had a inuction kit fitted when first bought the car and it threw up this cel removed it and reset the ecu it went away lucky it was only on for a short time before any damage was done

You said it

1.Remove the IK and put back the OE airbox ***'y.

2.Remove the MBC and re-plumb the OE Boost Solenoid.

3.Leave the tunning to someone that knows what they are doing

It only takes a small variance inthe size of the tube that the maf sensor goes in to completely throw the fueling out. This is obviously what has happened in your case and as such it was making it run lean. Not good.

Induction kits are fine if mapped for them on newage subaru but I would put your std airbox on and also get rid of the manual boost controller as that is just playing russian roulette with your engine.
