So reading all the posts about how the DBW system hands and is unresponsive, I was wondering if you guys can still rev match quickly and smoothly in these cars. I have an aluminum flywheel on my prelude so blipping the throttle is seamless and easy. How is it on the Si? I'm concerned bc I drove an 07 sedan, and supposedly the rev hang issues were supposed to be fixed, but I still noticed it when I shifted above 6k at WOT. Any thoughts?

 

I always did it in my FG1 and I currently do it in my GD3 [Fit] which also has the DBW system.

 

I don't have a problem with rev matching.

 

Took me a while to get used to rev matching because I am so used to the pedals, with my 92 hatch. All i know is that if you have a heavy foot, then you need to apply your rev matching a lil softer on the new FG'S/FA'S
=]

 

so its safe to say that even with the DBW system the throttle is just as responsive? thats good to hear.

i have no issues with rev matching...i also think this is the easiest car i've ever owned to heel-toe with. DBW doesnt seem to affect these things for me.

Agreed

 

just test drove one today and i didn't notice any delay when rev matching. i was expecting it to because of all the rumors i've heard of throttle delay.

 

awesome, I forgot to test for this the last time I test drove one, but I'll definately try it out before I buy.
