Default hesitation problem with new tunes pls forward bill

I have been trying to call php for 3 days friday monday tuesday and called about 50 times so please forward this to bill. I have a hesitation problem. while Im at a stop light waiting when it turns green i tap the gas to take off and theres a bad hesitation. The engine almost wants to die then it comes to life and goes. It does this majority of the time. Twice yesterday in traffic the engine died by hitting the gas then braking cause the driver in front of me. if I romp on it it goes but if i tap the gas theres a bad hesitation. Also im getting horrible milage 15 mpg.
i just cleaned out my ebp sensor so I hope that
helps please let me know i think its a tune problem.

Eric,

Keep in mind that our phone hours are 12-5 EST M-F and our phone hours have been listed on the website for as long as it's been up.

I will be calling you in a little bit (still early on the west coast).

Eric was able to get through today so I gave him a test to try out before we had the possibility of chasing our tails in the tuning.

He will post back any results.

Here is an update
I unplugged my sensor that's on the driver side head to see if I had a hpop pressure problem. Cody explained to me that there is a valve or plunger in there that adjust the oil pressure for my injectors at low rpm and sometimes it gets sticky or worn out. Well by plugging the sensor the idle was much quieter and seems like the problem went away. Tomorrow I will get my friends scanner and get Cody some more readings such as pressure etc.
If your reading this and your new I was calling the old number da I'm a dork! Cody is very respectful and knowledgable and they will help you out. Php is a great company.
