Default engine lags a bit...

didnt know where to post this but, sometimes when im stoped and then pretty much floor it, the engine seems to not respond instantly. the engine seems to lag just a tad maybe from 1-3k rpms then after that it just takes off like i would expect it to. I hope u understand what i mean, kinda hard to explain. What could be causing this? bad timing? any way of fixing it?

thanks

see what specs are and if you want that little bog to go away then retard your timing like 1-2 degress and it should go away just remeber that its gonna hurt your top end some as well
