Did you recently preform a silicon/rubber vac tube upgrade? If so...there is a small "pellet" in the boost sensor vac line. That may be missing, and related to the hestitation.

1) Inspect & clean or beef up the firewall to bellhousing ground.
2) As "sunshine" said if the boost sensor sees spikes it can give fuel cuts.
3) If the TPS is worn enough to have drop-outs in the resistance value as you open the throttle, the ECU will give fuel cuts.

Another good idea is to run a jumper from that rear rotor housing ground location directly to the firewall, to back up the tranny-to-firewall ground. Clean up the original terminal/housing ground, and install the new terminal directly on top of the original one , then bolt 'em back down. Applying a dab of silicone (black or red to take the heat) over the bolt & terminals area will help keep further dirt & corrosion at bay.
Ahh, I finally got to read the "grounding how-to"...Not very impressed, I must say...90% of it is either overkill, or not designed correctly to supplant the OEM grounds the way the ECU wants to see them...Obviously not written by someone with real-world commercial or engineering electrical experience...
I am usually a congenial guy, always open to new ideas and suggestions, but when I see the BS you guys are doing to your cars using this "how-to", it pisses me off...
