shouldn't the SCT have taken care of the Lag?
Only the electronic part of it. some of us have a physical gap before the sensor recognizes pedal travel. I opened up the pedal and put in a spacer to fix it. love it now.
Worst:
2. The above mentioned lag (now fixed), which exagerrated #1.
1. Drivetrain clunk!! for me, it's a warm weather (generally over 50 degrees) problem, where most gear shifts produce clunking. very hard to drive this thing smoothly in redlight traffic, and very annoying. even without throttle lag it clunkes a lot.
The Best:
The engine. Coming from 6 years in a WRX (2 liter turbo), having low end grunt is great! Now if only the tall tires & tall final drive didn't try and ruin in. I think a 3.73 is in my future, as is a driveshaft to address the clunk.
I've tweaked many little things that bothered me, like the vague shifter (shifter bushings), non-sporty handling (shocks,
panhard bar, front
LCA bushing inserts), crappy sound out of the shaker 500 (new radio fixed missing odd bass notes). I'm loving this car now.
I just put the blizzacks on this week (ws-50's). I drove in a little snow back in March when I got the car, but nothing really bad. I've driven a little in winter in RWD cars before, and while acceleration wasn't stellar, that's just a 2WD thing.
