2300-2500RPM vibration

I really dont know what it is, i did a search and a bunch of people are saying that its the OBX headers (i got last gen Stainless Steel OBXs)

And i'm also having a problem with my pedal, whenever i stop at a light (1/2 times) i gotta literaly POUND the pedal to get going. I'm guessing this is because of dirt in my butterfly, thats why i ask the wonderfull people of this board. (i got injen 2pc Intake)

is the vibration happening when car in park, or when car is moving? If the car is moving then it might be your wheels/tires

as for the gas pedal, check your butterfly. Also check for any kinks in the TB cable

it could be resonance, i had some really bad resonance with the obx. Are you running stock exhaust or aftermarket. I changed my header gaskets and and did a full cat back exhaust, the resonance was gone. Also that mashing of the gas could also be the TPS sensor. I had a problem with mine. The screw had to be drilled out, re threaded and read with an O meter. Got it fixed and the accerleration was back right away.

1, i'm runing a '99 -p. I'm runing stock exhaust. I checked the buterfly today and theres nothing wrong, its clean, a little greasy but its clean.

My TL is coming apart, i have a bad rear O2 sensor, this wierd noise, squaking in the center console, 72,000miles, a bad driver headlight (not bulb not ignitor since i tested the WHOLE headlight w/ bulbs pluged into the cables on the right side headlight) and bits of leather on my steering weel litteraly peels off everytime i roll my hand to take a turn.

Heh this is so stressing, i just started college on monday too.

I retighten the nuts and bolts but there was nothing loose, i got no idea what the screw bigman talked about, and yeah, it appears to be a resonance...keep throwin tips please.

peace.

2300-2500 RPM is definitely a resonance spot. I have that problem in my car, but I do not have vibrations. Just the sound.

But I did have bad vibrations with the dead O2 sensor. Have you fixed yours yet?
