i have a 6mt sport with stage 2 tune and ive started to notice that when driving in maybe 3rd and 4th gear when i let off of the gas and the revs drop to about 2700-3000 rpm and then i will try to press the gas peddle again there is like a lag or hesitation that happens before there is any response( i can feel the hesitation and then i can feel it kick in) and causes knock count to go up by like 5-8 every time. i was wondering if anyone knows what im talking about or if y'all can say why its doing that.

Knock control is the more important item to watch on these platforms. 5-8 knock count is not a relevant threshold for concern.

The hesitation you feel at slight throttle open is a default in Honda's throttle tuning. We have throttle response quick adjustments that help with this. It seems to happen at very very slight throttle opening.

Ok yea it definitely is when I slightly press on the gas so i will definitely try to change the throttle response and see if that helps. Thanks for tips and response!

No problem. Let me know. We own the same vehicle, so have done quite a bit of testing with it.
