TMK, not that I have seen. But that is just normal with a DBW system. When and if Hondata or anybody else releases anything that will allow a conversion, that should take care of the problem.

Not that you own an 06 civic, but there are numerous variations of throttle lag,
My car is minimal, yet a local friends is rather drastic.

Again... as i stated above, bring the car to Honda for your HDS update and it should decrease your lag

Does this also affect the 2007 model? I have noticed this as well, although it seems to be a little less than the 06 that I test drove.
