throttle hesitation????

if i turn the dsc off (not completely) it seemes like when i am getting on it sometines there is a slight millisecond lag when shifting into next gear. is that the dsc still coming in? Is the only way to get rid of all throttle lag to turn the dsc completely off?? is this something to do with electronic throttle and not at all with dsc? thanks

I just brought a relevant thread up for you to read. There should be a nifty list of similar/related threads at the bottom as well.

I think I know what you mean. I was feeling this at some point, and every once in a while I still do. When you shift up and bring the throttle back in with the clutch engagement - bring the throttle back in just a little bit quicker than the clutch. See if that helps. Even the stock flywheel is pretty light compared previous rotaries and other cars. I suspect the rpms can get a little too low in between shifts. You might also try not lifting the throttle completely in between shifts - keeping it a little above idle. Although, someone might tell me that is bad for the transmission or something...
