I was wondering if you could help me. When go to hit lift in first gear the engine will sort of hesitate around 6500 rpms. It's so bad that you can actually feal the car surge forward from the loss in power. When I shift into second the engine goes to red line just fine. Third and fourth are the same no problem at all. I cleaned my airfilter on my AEM CAI and it still does the same thing. When I took it to toyota the guys ran a diag on it and the VVT portion on the computer was fine. The master mechanic said that he couldn't fix it and told me to run 5w30 oil in it instead of the 10w30 I had been using. I've had my car for 2 years and been running the same oil in it ever since. Toyota said that I should change the oil and if it still did it they would call technical support and have them come down and take a ride with me. I'm just scared that there going to give me the run around and try to blame it on the intake and the 5 Ziegen cat back. Basically I was told that I don't have a problem and shouldn't be reving my car past 5000 rpms in the first place. Eventhough I only have about 50% power in first gear.
