Default 99 EM1- Slight Hesitation During Acceleration

Well H-T members it seems lately that my em1 has problems accelerating usually around the 3200-4000 rpm range...It is nothing serious but when I accelerate normally it tends to hick-up more like stop and quickly get up and go again..You can feel it inside the car as well...I just recently did routine maintence on the car so distributor,cap,rotor,spark,plugs,t-belt,water,pump etc. are all new...any other suggestions?

no check engine lights(never have), modifications are just the basic bolt-ons.... header,intake,exhaust,etc.
