I have a 2005 V6 Mustang with an added but never used ZEX nitrous oxide kit and an aftermarket Dynomax dual exhaust. I have just recently noticed a slight hesitation or misfire from the engine while the car is in drive and the brakes are on. It feels as if the misfire or hesitation is comming from the drivers side of the engine. Normal performance while driving and accelearting does not seem to be affected.. Any suggestions on what might be causing this ??[img:972dfd23ed]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/194759_carandcats11_1.jpg[/img:972dfd23ed]

try disconnecting your battery for at least 5mins to reset the car's computer. this may cure the problem.
