And to think that drive by wire technology is supposed to give better throttle response...

Actually, if it's programmed for it, it will. On sports cars like the Mazda MX-5, the drive-by-wire throttle provides good response and no "bogging" like you get with cable throttles when you shove your foot to the floor at low rpms.

But for regular cars, the DBW is used to meet fuel economy and emissions standards. Suddenly opening the throttle causes transient lean conditions that are bad for NOx emissions. Suddenly closing the throttle causes transient rich conditions that are bad for HC emissions and economy.

Yes ito nga ang reason kung bakit may delay sa throttle. For fuel economy. Kaya lang nakakamiss yun pag apak mo palang eh instant response agad at pag bitaw mo eh instant baba din ng rpm. Ganun kasi sa hi-ace namin na van, pero pag lipat ko sa vios ang hirap mag rev match. Hehehe. Sa vios kasi, pag apak mo, di agad nagresponse tapos pag bitaw mo accelerator, hindi din kaagad nagreresponse. may delay onti.
