Engine Problem

I have a 07 SS SC and i am having some problems with my car accelerating in 4th and 5th gear at about 4000 rpms.... It struggles like i am redlining the car and it cant go any faster... Plus my check engine light is on and when i am at about 4000 rpms it blinks.... I have no clue what it could be. Any ideas could help!

Take off the CAI and take it in. Dealers love to blame everything on simple mods.

Solid CEL = Emission Code
Flashing CEL = Misfire

no your cat should be fine, thats emissions. the guy above says that if your CEL is blinking then its a misfire. it could be a dirty MAF sensor or something with the ignition. go to advance and have them scan it and see whats wrong and what code(s) your throwing. they will scan the car for free.
