Jerking and hesitation with my 05 evo MR
It happens a lot when I try to accelerate but only when the turbo kicks in, it jerks and back fires as well when I spool up. If anyone knows of this issue let me know the help is gladly appreciated

You most likely need a tune. Check your plug gap, coil pack.

throwing any codes? Check/replace spark plugs, do a boost leak test and go from there.

Gap them to 24 and then get a tune.
