Neither. Is it a bad flat spot of just a moments dip in power? The IMRC maybe playing up but they all have a dip in the power curve when the IMRC opens up the secondary ports.If it flys at 3800-4000RPM upto the redline all the time then it's not the IMRC.(Silver box,front cam cover under Duratec engine cover)
