Default car bogs down in 1st and 2nd gear sometimes

for the most part it drives smooth but sometimes when im moving into fist and 2nd from a stop it boggs down like it wants to die out. is that this "heat soak" ive been hearing of? im running a oem vented hood and the motor is all stock. it goes away after a little but it really bugs me because it makes me look like a clown that cant drive lol. anyne have an idea of what it might be or if its normal?

Have you cleaned your IAC lately? How's your plugs look?

It's probably not the plugs but it wouldn't hurt to change them out anyway if you have some miles on them. I would make sure your air filter is clean. If it's dirty it can block some of your air flow which would result in the bogging down.
