It's the first vehicle I've driven with the electronic throttle body and it took me some time to get used to.

    Oh, and I can't wait to tune my '00 Trans Am to get back around the town drivability.

    Looking forward to having V2 available soon.

    FYI, my first post too...
    Welcome.

    Cheers,

    Strange, normally the pedal feels dead from factory, sounds like it already has a tune in it ;-)

    Yes, they are Electronic Throttle

    That's the thing, the pedal feels dead, so before I know it, it goes from just crawling to full bore and shifting at 5000rpm. My wife then starts yelling at me reminding me that I'm not driving my Trans AM. Fact is, the pedal has no feel and there's such a delay in the gas I end up giving it more gas to get it to react. Like I said, it sucks and takes me a while to get used to. On top of that, I know that this transmission can shift a hell of a lot quicker and smoother as I've ridden in and driven many an F-body with trannies that will snap your neck on every shift. Not that I'm looking for that exactly, but something better than the mushy feel it has now, TORQUE MANAGEMENT IS A BITCH.

    I haven't even touched on my T/A that needs a tune in a serious way. I've got a 2-3 year old LS1edit 'mail order' tune that does nothing for daily drivability.
