evo X issue!!!

wazup guys!im new to evo and turbo cars...
while drivin the evo X today the car felt jerky when i do some spirited driving.
at the begining of acceleration the car runs ok but the jerkyness (bogging like) occured at around 6k-7krpm when i shifted gears..the guage flashes a Check warning sign but disappears....this doesnt happen on normal driving, and it only occur when hard acceleration is being done...pls give me an input wether this could be normal or it could be just me that im not driving the car right or something.

thanks...

sounds like you need the latest ecu flashes from the dealer. it will help with the hickups at the top end, and fix a bunch of other driveability issues.

You know, I have to say that when I first got my EVO X I did not notice it, but after having it for a while at WOT around 5 to 6k it feels flat. No more power, just stays in limbo until the next gear comes around. I can not wait to start modding. Wifey is going to kill me, I promised her I would leave this car alone, but no such luck! No way that I can keep any car stock!!!
