dayum, It looks normal to me? Actually, it does lag after 100mph mark?

The hesitation is only for a split second at a time but happens a couple of times?

I think you need to run your car on the dyno and see what happens.

Yeah -it's weird, I've never noticed it before.... I wonder if it just really needs a tune after I installed the vararam... I did that nearly 2 months ago but after this it's got me thinking.

Maybe the nitrous gets installed sooner than I was planning, it's been sitting in the garage long enough anyway

My car needed a tune really bad after the vararam install. That fixed all the problems I was having.

Get a tune. I'll bet your dyno graph looks like a big earthquake on a seismograph.

Also, change your plugs and wires... Sometimes hesitations like that could be knocking.
