It's a "feature" of the stock ECU. It is basically a lag time between the primary injectors and the secondaries coming on, and possibly the right voltage during this transition. That is why it is recommended to add grounding straps.
Only real way to make it go away for good completely is to get an ECU replacement. Not a pigyback, nor a remapped ECU, but a complete replacement.
Also, each car hesitates differently, some very little while others have it alot.
Once I installed my Power FC, the hesitation was completely gone.

Well, he didn't exactly mention WHEN his car is hesitating. The engine will also hesitate at ANY RPM if you got old plugs in there.
The 3000rpm hesitation IS ECU related caused by a bad ground within the ECU. Additional ground straps sometimes help, but not always.
When was the last time you got a tune up?

The the 3k hesitation is only supposed to happen undewr light or moderate throttle. If this happens under heavy throttle then I doubt it is the infamous 3k hesitation.
At what rpm does it occur?
There is ome info on my site about it and links to others too.
