If going through twisties, better to use manual mode to stay in the powerband instead of S. This post has been edited by dares: Aug 14 2012, 09:27 AM |

Part of the sluggish reason is before the clutch will fully release while when u step on brake. ( not sure how much u step). When u release the brake, it will take some time to engage the gear.
When u on d mode, after 1-2 second u release ur brake without pressing pedal, u will feel ur rpm increase from around 0.6 to 0.8, at this time u press the pedal, ur car will pick up instantly. Correct me if I m wrong.. Added on August 14, 2012, 9:38 amPart of the sluggish reason is before the clutch will fully release while when u step on brake. ( not sure how much u step).

Yep, no matter what you still need to wait for the clutch to close, regardless of D or S.When u on d mode, after 1-2 second u release ur brake without pressing pedal, u will feel ur rpm increase from around 0.6 to 0.8, at this time u press the pedal, ur car will pick up instantly.

QUOTE(guna96 @ Aug 14 2012, 09:48 AM) There is little to no turbo lag, but the lag is more than the Exora CFE so I can only conclude that it is the ECU tuning.Yep, there is also the drive-by-wire lag (caused by ECU) and CVT lag. Difference between using D and S from standstill is, once the clutch is engaged, S mode allows you to start boosting faster than D. This post has been edited by dares: Aug 14 2012, 09:58 AM |
