Default My motor...

Can someone tell me if something is wrong with my motor?
When I'm in first gear it touchs 8 no problem but when I go into 2nd gear it hesitates and in 3rd it hesitates.

It doesn't run smooth, it feels like it's lagging.

Can anybody know what it is?

When I'm pushing it feels kinda laggy and it feel like it holding back.

Is this a GSR? Are you throwing any CEL's? How is your oil level?

Right now I have Royal Purple in it. Is it cool if I just put regular 10w-30 in?

It's bearly touching the tip of the dip stick.

Yes, lack of oil will cause those problems. If your car is burning oil at all, don't waste your money on synthetic or royal purple. It leaks faster than conventional oil.

Supertech

If your oil was that low vtec probably wasn't even crossing over and that was probably why it felt slow. Once vtec starts crossing over it will be a new car, kinda like if you just added NAWS or something so make sure that you are ready for it. It might even break your neck from pulling so hard, I would invest in a neck brace
