I had the exact same problem on my old 200sx. Never got it solved, however sources did tell me the ECU have been a culprit.

Is the back box brand new..?

Could be partially blocked if second hand..

Mine didnt really hesitate just felt like it had more to give but since my de-cat feels far better and revs alot more now could even be the CAT.

have seen lots of people saying about this usally air flow meter or ecu relay if you have tried these try crank breather pipe give it a good clean with some form of cleaner then try throttle body clean with carb cleaner if still no joy, change back box maybe cat depends how much gash you have hope this helps

I had the same problem and noticed that there was a ticking noise coming from the throttle body and it turned out to be the throttle position sensor sticking,slackened throttle cable bit of wd40 a few taps and now it flies.
