Revving Issues on 13b s4

So I've been having this issue with my s4 and Its very annoying.. The car runs perfectly fine. Idles normal. drives fine. good on gas. but when I try and give It a go It will rev fine until It hits around 3800 rpms. Then It starts revving slow and bucking.

Its weird. You can feel the car fall on Its face and stop moving. then It will skip revv the whole time. and even If I'm cruising just going above 4000 rpm that car starts acting up and doing a slight buck. Anybody ever have this problem?

It's a common ailment. Search in the 2nd gen forum and you'll find a lot about the problem.
- Could be as simple as fixing the grounds
- Could be as simple as freeing up the function of the secondary injector actuators.
- Might need to clean your injectors

Like I said a lot of people have had this issue and it has been discussed many time in the 2nd Gen forum.

as well as if the car is flooding out alot (probably due to injectors) could be fouling out your plugs. =)
