Im sure this has been discussed before...so what this means is that the dip is caused by hardware instead of software? I'm just curious because if it's "by design" then why did the engineers choose to leave it there because surely they could have done something about it during development/testing? Is there even another new NA car on the market today that has a torque dip as bad as this?
