Well to start off, yes I have a 6 bolt with a 2g ECU and yes I do have DSM link. I am getting the random misfire code and I know how to shut it off, but the only problem is the engine feels like it is really randomly misfiring. At first the car bucked HARD at 4 grand and on the way home it started to run like it was running of of 2 cylinders. I can't figure out what is causing this since I just replaced my plugs 3 days ago with 7ES's and I had them all gapped correctly. What else could it be?
 
It just started yesterday, It was fine all the way to the meet and all the way back. The only thing a little bit odd in a log I did right after it happened was 1.1 degree of knock at about 3800 rpms and a small temp jump. But everything else seemed normal. Heh and I didn't touch anything I swear :p
