Default Stalling when flooring

Hey Guys/Gals,

I am getting some stalling / stuttering while driving and hitting the gas a little hard. Kind of like when you go to pass someone. Not really petal to the metal but just enough to hit that extra gear (if you know what i mean). Instead of hitting that extra gear/boost I am getting a stalling/sputtering like its getting flooded.

Thought it was maybe the trans but it doesn't do this normal driving just when hitting the gas hard. Maybe a stuck fuel injector or something along those lines?

Anyone have an idea or simliar problem in the past?

thanks

Beats me it runs fine unless I get on it a little then I get stutter. Also, I have been told by the dealership that the fuel pump is indesctructible on the lexus. Lexus makes a claim that if one ever goes out they want to see it.
