SLUGGISH

Ok so i wanted to know what i can do to resolve this, when at a dead stop once i take off the car seems kinda sluggish until it hits about 2700 rpms, is there a reason for this or is it just the way the car is geared?

Add some fuel injector cleaner to the gas tank, dirty injectors can also make your car feel sluggish or cause a hesitation off the line.
