Title: Car seems to "pull" more when I let off throttle a bit. Is this normal?
Post by: LeeGTI89 on October 05, 2012, 06:00:08 pm

I noticed it when I first got the car.. If I give it full throttle in 3rd for example, it pulls it pulls quite good. But I've noticed when I let off the throttle a little bit maybe 85-90% it pulls a lot harder compared to WOT.
I just kinda got used to it and forgot about it.. It's been mapped since then it still does it . Is it normal??? If not what could be causing it. It's almost like it boosts more with less throttle...  :S.

Thanks

Not sure what it is but my GT Sport does the same. Remapped aswell. Seems to respond better to a more progressive right foot than to just planting it.
