You need to provide more information.

Do you have any mods done and if so what?
Are you running a different tune?

We need some straw to make these bricks bro.

Ditto. And you shouldn't have any lights on. The board should be clear, other than the TCS showing "OFF" after you manually disengage the lil' bastard.

If you're talking about the power surge around 3000 RPM, then a good custom tune may be all you need to smooth that out a bit.
