[nprboxster]

so when I push down on the accelerator, I realized if you push a little harder you feel it click and go a little further and the engine revs high. whats the purpose Of this? my car really doesnt accelerate much faster and actually drops from 5th to 2nd or 3rd gear and hangs there and when I lighten up on pedal again, to get out of that mode, kind of jerks back into gear. I have 99 boxster. thoughts? does anyone use that last push on the accelerator? also, I went to pass on a one lane highway yesterday and even gunned was slow accelerating to pass, which is dangerous. do these cars have a fast aceleration and I am not getting it because potential bad MAF? have had car for 3 wks. thx all
