Fuel starvation typically happens during higher speed turns. Never heard of it happening on hard acceleration; although if the tank is low enough I could see it happening.

When you say "hard acceleration" are you "mashing" the pedal or gradually increasing it? If there are no codes, I can't imagine what it may be. Try putting a bottle of Sea Foam in it. There may have been some carbon build-up (during the winter daily driving) in the cylinders/valves that may be the problem. I've been using Sea Foam for A LOT of years with great results.

Let us know if you find anything...
