I've had the car for only a week and I've had other civics before it wasnt ever like this.I think I have a problem I replaced the timing belt and it seems much better. The car is stock other then an intake. Does anyone have any ideas other then thats just the way it is....

beer4me20 : did you ever find out what was causing this?
I'm having the same problem , recently fitted de-cat and fuel filter to my SiR and reset the ecu, seems to lose power between 2-3000rpm's and then pull like normal
