Default Weird lag issue

Info: 2007 GT 5spd 93 octane gas
Mods: Steeda CAI, Steeda UDP, CatBack O/R X-Pipe

Since I bought my 07 Gt a few months ago it has this weird lag issue when the car is cold and in 2nd gear. In first gear it accelerates fine, once I shift into 2nd and give it gas it feels like it is either getting too much or too little air and has a weird slight kick back as it accelerates. But once I shift into third everything is fine. The RPM's don't seem to fluctuate at all. To make things weirder, once the car is warmed up this issue doesn't occur at all in 2nd gear. I have started the car and gave it gas while in neutral and it seems to rev up (stopped at 5k) and run just fine like air flow is no issue. I was wondering if it was possible the CAI I have requires a tune that wasn't done that could cause this issue or if you guys had any clue? There is no check engine light on. If you have an idea or need more info please let me know. Thanks.

try moving the MAF in different positions try 45 degree changes also try just plain disconnecting battery for 30 mins reboot the computer is what we in the 99-04 section would do. might get your post moved soon though =)

I feel like an idiot. Didn't realize what forum I posted in. Thank you for the advice though. I'll give it a try. Can a moderator please put this in the right spot ;-). Thanks.
