engine hesitation?!

last couple of days i noticed my ss is hesitating as i cruise down the road , mostly notice at a consistant speed, slightly accelerating too but being on the throttle less on acceleration...

i have the upgrade kit and checked and didnt noticed any rubbed wires and its not a constant hesitation and i still have full boost but even when idling at red lights im noticing a slight "miss" on gas pedal/ tach but when i take off i see it in the boost guage as well to where its slowly climbing but drops then rises abrubtly.

could it be the connection to the map sensor (looks all good but doubt they soldered it)

there is no check engine either and i ran it well below 1/8th of tank of fuel thinking gas was the issue and it did it since top off too...

HELP! bad enough i go to dealer for tpms errors that never show up when i go to dealer. dont need a "non code error" making me look like a idiot too hahahah

well if this wasnt the SS id tell you put some premium in that baby. The first fill in the 2.4 from the dealer was 87 and the lag was seriously noticable. Premium put the punch (a little punch) back in

plugs, they seem to get hesitant when its hotter outside. either gap them down a little or replace them imo.

Could it be bad gas? No, this is not a Beano commercial.
