Default Acceleration loss after getting recall done

All,

So I got the fuel hose recall done. After taking the car out of dealership I noticed that initially RPM rise was very sluggish between 3k and 4k and it felt like a total different car. I drove it a little bit more and it seemed to rev normal later. However my overall impression is that car doesn't accelerate as sharply as it used to.

What could be wrong in your impression? Something wrong with exhaust? or fuel hoses not done right? Can fuel hoses affect acceleration?

Please advise. What should I do next?


Thanks All

I hope this doesn't happen to me because I'm about to get my recall mod done soon.

Another thing that I am also noticing, that when I initially start the car, the car idles below 1000RPM like at 800RPM or so. Before it used to do at 1000RPM. Does the accelerator race need to be set properly?

Thanks

I had my recall done Friday. Nothing different regarding acceleration or responsiveness afterward, thankfully.
