1) Rear trailing arm/torque rod bushings. Trailing arm bushings tend to go first, but the t.r. bushings might also be shot at this point.

2)I believe that Turbobricks (www.turbobricks.org) features an airbox mod. like this.

Dylan:

It might be as simple as worn rear suspension bushings. Consider checking those first. It's about time for them, if your car hasn't had them replaced yet.

Best of luck.
