High RPM Problems Please help.
Subaru has like a killsafe... if your driving the car too hard at a super high RPM.. it will shut the the engine off... You either have to shift into the next gear or wait for the car to slow down until it starts back up... im not sure if thats what you experience when you say it felt like hitting a wall

im sure if you take it to a tuner they can remove that from the ECU...then you can blow your engine if you want 
well as long as the car is running smooth then I would get it tuned. Once you get it tuned the tuner should disable the rear O2 sensor so that code will not continue to appear

Question:
Do you get a check engine light + flashing cruise control light? Does this happen on cold days or all the time in 4th at WOT?
Usually that will throw a CEL + Flashing Cruise. Pull the code and it will read something along the lines of a wastegate malfunction.
