Default surge?

ok when im leaving a red light and it shifts to second.. and im about 1\4 throttle it has a slight surge and then goes away,, it only does it every now and then.

im guessin it might be my fuel filter..i bought the car a couple months ago and it has im guessing the factory one with 71k miles....

Try changing the fuel filter.... wont hurt to change it anyway. If that doesnt work holler at John and see if his tune's a little out of whack.

That is probably your issue. Get that thing retuned and you should be set. Nice meeting you as well.
