Good analogy. And I've got a mixed opinion on this too. DBW, like everything else happening in the car industry lately, is controlled with a computer and algorithm. The end result in most cases is an electronic system is taking over what used to be the responsibility of the driver. But to be fair it's also generally creating overall better performance (new M5 comes to mind, google 6spd M5 vs. DST M5 but current gen, Car and Driver compares I believe?). But again, I have mixed feelings about this because I'm a driver through n through. I wanna be "connected" to the car. Perfect example is the 6-spd manual. I'll always prefer rowin' the gears over pushin' paddles, but then you drive and ride in cars like the GT-R with its phenomenal DCT.. and you just have to accept that.. damn it! I'll never be able to shift that fast! lol
However.. you guys do know where I'm going with this next now right
(regarding the DBW problem)? Guess what?? Our tune completely takes care of this lag, providing what feels like a more direct connection to the throttle. This is a good example of one of the positive advantages of everything seemingly being takin over by computers; at least we have the ability to easily make tweaks right??
Just another good reason to check out our tune. I'm willing to bet it takes care of all the little gripes you have with the stock performance of your car (which I'm assuming it must be).
