1996 Nissan hesitate on acceleration, It really got bad when I installed the Venom 400 pwr chip. Its doesn't hesitate as badly when I dis-engage the 400 PWR chip. I have also installed an INJEN cold air intake but the car was hesitating upon acceleratio before installing any of the about devices, it just got extremely bad with the 400 pwr chip. I have great maintenance records.

Maybe your TPS is bad or your MAF needs cleaning/replacing?

This will be the power chip, the engine management system may not be up to the demands of the chip, run a scan and see if the chip has caused any codes to set, start here.
