So i floor it and merge onto highway, at somewhere between 4,100 and 4,400 RPM in third gear the RPM's "LAG" and hover there for a sec... Idea's?

someone said it's an EGR thing, i doubt it's a clutch tranny thing as the RPM would slip it to a higher RPM and not likly to be a torque converter because again it would slip to higher rpm upon slipping.

I thouhgt it might have to do something with the VVT SOHC to DOH-cam switching that this engine features delaying in it's 3200 RPM (or something like it) switch over.

FPR? fuel delivery idea's?
