Default Hesitation Problem

Ive noticed that when I want to mash on the gas in 2nd or 3rd while cruising at about 2500-3000RPMs the car hesitates before taking off. Its like a second or 2 before it kicks in then the car takes off like full throttle. Any ideas? Oh yea the car the s/c'ed.

Lag maybe...sounds like a turbo problem My friends 300Z is like that, its turbo'd. He mashes the gas and it takes maybe a second or two before it really get going. I dont think S/C'rs have lag though. So maybe its something else. Post more of your set up. Need more info.

yea like i said, ive never heard of a s/c'r having lag, they're belt driven. The reason Turbo's have lag is because of the exhaust turbin drive system. It takes a second to build exhaust velocity to spool the turbo up to build boost.
