myne did the same thing around 1200 rpm. turn out it was an bummed injector.. does it idle rough sometimes? just something to consider..if i would get on the gas pedal it and then let off it would keep moving for a second or two. girlfriend found that one out for me just about ran through the garage in the winter time

I may be way off by this one, but mine does the same thing. I think it just dumps so much fuel it just hangs there till it burns and the boost then comes back down. kinda like a run away engine that stops.

Correct me if i am wrong thou.

That might explain why the Edge EZ will make it 'hang' sometimes .... Thanks!

I changed my air intake system with a homemade sewer pipe cold air intake and amsoil air filter. It seems to help, but its not a cure.

If it is not an injector, it is probably the Fuel Control Actuator or FCA

Mine does the same thing usually when you stand on it hard and then let out of it. Thought that it might be dumping lots of fuel in like always_lost said, or that it was reading the release of the pedal fast enough.
