I have recently modified my air intake to what I found on Pedro's garage website and since the car has not been right. I worry that it could have been the modification that is causing it or I could have messed something up during the install. The problem is the car seems to hesitate before hitting 3k RPMs in 1st and 2nd gear. Also, on a quick shift the car jumps to 4k RPMs and it stops providing power to the wheels until I lift off the pedal. The car is a 97 with about 56k miles on it. I hope someone has had these issues and can help me figure out what the problem is! Thanks!
