loss power issue
ok ill start, i went to dealer for few cels! fixed everything up. new plugs, new wire, new coils, brand new mazdaspeed cai, brand new cat, check the compression everything is good! but in the morning when i start the car it runs like on only 1 rotor or whatever u call it then a few days later i started to have power issue on highway when i hit 7k then power comes back up to 8k then loss of power for a few second( like the engine cannot take enough air or what so ever) then after 8900k it ok! it feels like the rpm between 6k and 9k is having a hard time to go up for 1 second then its ok!

How is it running now? How does idle? Have you reset the ECU? Please give us the history on your car. The service it's had. Type of driving it gets(long commutes, short trip), fuel used(reg or prem), ever flooded, mods installed. Have you ever run any engine de-carbon cleaner to improve compression? You might need this to clean up the carbon buildup from a lot of short drives and not much red lines. Just any thing that you can add.

How long ago did you get this work done? Might it still be under warranty? Call them and say it's not right. You might have to leave over night so they can start in the morning.

engine change under warranty its a 2004 with 120000km! there was prestone on spark plugs! low compression when cold would cause misfire at cold even with brand new coil,plugs and wires!
im lucky here in canada its 7years/160000km full warranty!
