Just like the title says guys, I've been having a sort of little hesitation when I reach 6k rpm. Its like it does not want to go all the way to 7k, but its like a split second. then it will still continue to go up. Anybody knows what's causing it or have experienced and solved the problem? I am thinking that I probably need to replace my wires or needed a tune-up(I just replace the plugs by the way). Need help guys.

ive seen on some cars, it could be the spark plug gapping or are you running a piggyback? if u have a piggyback, it could be a 'fail save mode'.
but im no mechanic. im just saying what i think it could be.

For my car, the hesitation under WOT was due to a dirty MAF.

Thanks guys for the advise and help. these past months also i was experiencing a static noise off my sound system. I went back to the place where i got my car re-wired. The main installer there said that I might be having a little electrical problem due low on power. He did install a noise filter, made the static to be not so obvious. He has the feeling that I need to replace my plug wires and the plugs as well.

A piggy back ecu takes signals from your sensors and modifies them to trick your ecu into reading a different value.
is sorta like a stand alone. but again, im no master at cars lol
