Sounds like a slipping clutch.. does it not just jump RPM's and not go anywhere or what? Also, what kind of mods...might be worth it to see if the dealer can check it out and maybe call warranty on it... just my .02

it moves just fine, regular driving is fine. just WOT, if you are driving at around 3000 rpms and punch it, it seems delayed and then all of the sudden jumps up to high 4000s

the best clutches to get would be a spec stage 3+ or a fx 400. either clutch is very good for pretty much anything you need.

also you need to upgrade you cmc to a oem evo 9 w/a magnus adapter. other wise your stock one will give out. they are plastic junk, literally. use amsoil to change all of your fluids.
