Gas Pedal Delay
Loss in acceleration + throttle response ??

It is possible to modify the throttle tables to improve response. In fact, turning off ETC in the ECU does wonders for throttle response, but you lose all the safety features.
Smooth Throttle for UpRev

It's a strange feeling as if the ECU is holding back power because 1st gear starts are a bit rough at times when there is a noticeable transition from 1-3k RPM. There are times it really holds back power. With the foot on the ground, it feels like I'm in the wrong gear. Even the turbos take longer to spool up. It feels like it is aggressively cutting power or opening the throttle sooner.
The symptoms posted in the "Gas Pedal Delay" thread are EXACTLY what I am experiencing. Reading through that thread, tells me that this isNOT fixable, especially since I live in AZ...where nighttime temps are in the 90's. It didn't appear any of the top tuners had come up with a 100% solution?
