I traded in my 08 Si for the FR-S, there's NO rev-hang whatsoever! Even after the ECU reflash on the Si, which removed 90% of it, the FR-S still drops revs faster.

It took me a little getting used to, definitely revs slower than what I'm used to but I don't mind it, I felt like even 6th gear has power. I don't need to downshift as much and when I do I find I don't need to blip the throttle nearly as much either to rev match.

I've set the shift light to 4000 and set the buzzer so I can break her in solid. Getting to 4k you can tell its about to get real good, can't wait to open her up after the first thousand miles.
