Default Need Help With Diagnosing

Just like the title says. Say I give it half throttle and it picks up and goes. After about 5 seconds of holding the throttle at that position the car acts like it wakes up and then takes off. Like its starving for a second then gets what it needs. Kinda hard to explain. Any suggestions?

It started right after I put on a ported throttle body. Everything else is fine as far as I can tell.

hmm...well i suppose there could be something wrong with the throttle body...put the stocker back on if you have it...or borrow someone else's...see if it does the same thing...if not you need to get your ported throttle body fixed...

I would put the stock one back on, but I traded my stock one for it. Any suggestions if I pull it back off of what to start looking for?
