I was driving to work this morning, about 5 minutes left for my commute, when i attempted to overtake a car in the right lane to get onto the offramp. Apparently thats where i went wrong, downshifted to third gear, approx 6800 RPM, when suddenly the car sputtered. Immediatly i backed off. As all this was happening my CEL started to flash. After searching i found few results [i think something is wrong with the search spider] from what i found it seems like i have a misfire. I will be going to the dealership today after work, i have a K&N installed VIA head tech at Mazda. Is there anything i should tell these clowns? Anyone else with this problem have any updates?

Confirmed, i have a Misfire in sparkplug 2, i was reading the rx8 tech's machine. he said it might be because of the KNN, he said if it happens again he reccomends i go back to stock airbox.
