I know what you mean by throttle response. But I figure some of the blame has to go to the low compression ratio. The '01 is the first turbo car I've ever owned, and it's got a definite lack of engine-braking. This goes for long downhills too, so it's not just a quick-lift thing. There's certain long hills that I can simply leave in 5th & lift, in all the other cars. But in the turbo I keep accelerating because the engine doesn't have nearly as much compression drag. Does that make any sense?
I'm still watching to see if Dean or anybody knows... Does the T-7 control the wastegate along with the throttle? Maybe(?) the wastegate is sticking on your car.
