Questions with M flash

I took my 6 speed 8 in to the dealer to get the M flash earlier this week. when i told then guy i wanted the flash, he told me i needed a problem, and he just wrote down "acceleration feels sluggish" as the problem. so they have my car for about an hour and then i get my car back. the engine feels totally different now. it feels like something is restricting the acceleration of my rx8. i used to get to 100mph easy before the flash, and now i struggle to go beyond 70. Is this what everyone noticed after the M flash or do you guys think something is wrong?

also is there a way to see if the dealer actually gave me the M flash, not a previous flash?

If you read the diffrent threads you'll see that some notice a diffrence and others don't. I did not see much of a diffrence but I had it done during break in so I was not pushing it before the update. Struggling to go beyond 70? Thats not right go get it checked.
