It's not that AT ALL.

You get on the throttle... the car responds instantly and takes off, only to immediately cut power, throw you forward in your seat (since you're bracing for acceleration), bog for a good 2-3 seconds, then all of a sudden violently take off again. It's got nothing to do with the fact that this is a high-revving V6.

if the engine actually stops and sounds quiet, its fuel cut due to starvtion.

oil temp doesnt effect the car as much as you think. i have a datalogger, car can accelerate just as fast at 270 oil temp vs 220
