Say I step on the gas, the car will hesitate for a second then accelerate. Anyway to get rid of that easily?

You must have a lil lag on that turbo lol

Sorry, I had to

any error codes?

Nope. Like if I really accelerate. Say I'm merging onto a parkway and have to step on the gas. Ill get that 1-2 second lag then I set off.

Look at this and see if it might help Throttle Lag

maybe tps?......hah remember these cars have fly by wire throttle so generally anything less then like 75% input wont get it to really move that throttle butterfly for it to open up

Push the ESC Off button, and confirm the stability control is "off" when the indicator lights up in the instrument cluster. Then try accelerating from a stop again and see if it still hesitates.

Edit: if the hesitation you mentioned is at speed and it's taking a while for the transmission to downshift, trying draining and re-filling the transmission a couple times using a full synthetic fluid compatible with SP-III (will say so on the bottle).

I've driven a few Hyundai's with the 3.3L and know exactly what the OP is talking about. They have terrible throttle response...just enough to make driving them feel sort of awkward and harsh feeling (Head snaps back when it finally decided to go).

For some reason the response in the Electric Throttle Body in these cars is terrible. My 2.4 isn't as bad, but I still will sometimes take off from a dead stop a little harder than I should because I keep pushing on the accelerator expecting the thing to move.

Drive by wire is slow in general for most cars. Unless you are talking about down shift speed and there is nothing you can do. I will say this. I don't have this issue with my car.....

why?

With my 2.4, I get that lag from a stop, but only when the AC is on. If I turn it off, lag is pretty much gone. Could it be that simple?

I've always had that lag with my 3.3 V6. It's always been there, so I chocked it up to a slower throttle response then most cars. I've since gotten used to it after nearly 150k miles.
