Slight jerk/jolt on inital acceleration
From a standing start, has anyone encountered a slight jerk/jolt on inital acceleration?
This only happens from a standing start...no matter how I lightly touch the acceleration pedal, I can't take off smoothly.
It's as though something is sticking!
Any suggestions?

Thanks!

The car can accelerate while rolling really well thanks to the Upsolute chip.
I also have installed a Turbosmart DV/BOV, however this did not solve the problem.
When I start off, I feel like I'm giving everyone in the car whiplash, including myself!
Unfortunately, the engine light has not come on, therefore no fault codes are present.
I wonder if the throttle positioning may be off or a pedal issue?
I don't think it's the transmission because the car accelerates and decelerates without a problem and the rpm tach follows it too.
