Default DBW Question

Really just wondering what all in the Si is DBW. Read a few topics about the TB being DBW, and just wondering what else is. Did the search didn't really find anything.

Thats what DBW (drive by wire) is. It has to do with the Throttle body being controlled by electronics rather than the traditional throttle cable of prior years.

Oh ok, I was under the impression that other mechanical parts could also use DBW like brakes or steering etc...

The steering on the 06+ Si is electronically driven but it doesnt really have anything to do with the DBW.
Some quick common ones:
ABS: Anti-lock brakes
EBD: Electronic brake distribution
EPS: Electric Power steering
DBW: Drive by wire.(Throttle)
