Default Re: Dead Band ON Throttle

My brother bought a 06 Charger, which is a boat, and it's a drive by wire throttle also. I drove it the other day, and noticed a lag. It's barely perceptable, but for us car guys, it's annoying. My brother didn't even know what I was talking about when I pointed it out. I had to put him in another car and let him see what I meant. It took a while....

Anyway, there are tuners out there that can tune alot of that out, but the best way to get rid of it, it to convert back to a throttle cable. It should be possible, but it may not be worth it. I would look at tuning what you can out of it, and if nothing else, keep the throttle body as clean as you can....the blade tends to stick over time....carbon build up and what not. Anyway, these are just a couple of ideas off the top of my head. I hope it all works out.
