As long as you roll into the throttle it doesnt do it but what i dont understand is why the engine revs so slow when using the gas pedal but if you let the syncro rev match do its thing the throttle response is instant. maybe there is something here so maybe its somewhere between the pedal and the ecu/throttle body

Just a thought
anyone agree??


I agree that if you roll into the throttle the car feels OK. You just have to train yourself to do that.

As far as the slow revving, I think it's just that electronic delay between your foot going down, progressively increasing the throttle, and the computer reading the potentiometer. With SRM, the computer just sends a command signal that basically says "5,000 rpm NOW!" and the engine reacts. With the throttle, the computer is reading progressive throttle input from 0% to whatever amount of throttle you give, so the engine isn't going to rev quite as quickly.
