Brand spanky new R, throttle concern.. ?

[89strok]

Yes that's my plan, ppf full front clip atleast, door handles and maybe around her hips. Ceramic as well after. Thinking about having the roof wrapped gloss black because I love the black roof on oxford white. I will use the carbons for track and have a set of signatures i will use for street/autocross

Tried to buy a white with black stripes when I bought my R ......... just did not work out at the time. The red calipers just pop on this color combination ......... beautiful whip ........ ;-)

I agree with @Austinj427 and think you may still be used to the tune. To me, the lund tune really gave it more pop down low. When i took it back to stock the car just felt sick.

If it’s only been a week, hopefully you’re still “adjusting”

Maybe the throttle body needs calibrated, can that be done?

Funny you brought this up as I was wondering the same thing, but found a few things on the internet indicating I was not alone. I have a new 18 non r, and around 2900-3100 there is a distinct flat point when going part throttle. Happens in normal and sports mode. The closest thing I can compare it to from other cars is a miss, but it is definitely not a miss, just feels like a watered down version of it. Would like to get a tune that improves it because I feel like I will never get used to it, but warranty is a concern too.

I thought this flat spot at that rpm was a known issue. It has been discussed before, most lately with the honeybadgers elimination of it during engine refresh. I have it as well.

Thank you !
You and @lightrules have the best sinister color scheme I believe to ever make it to a car. Will always love the black on black

Thanks, when I was looking I was actually first going for a white with black stripes that looked identical to yours but it was a base car and I wanted the electronics pack so I wound up with the black on black.

Yes this is what I'm feeling, it feels like it's missing. Just threw me off big time because my 17' when stock never had this

Thanks for the info ! I'll have to catch up on his engine refresh thread, read more about this

First off, man, beautiful car! I have had no hesitation at all with my 19R. I would take it in

Congratulations! What dealer did you use?

I'm in CT too.

Thank you ! You as well. I found this one in upstate NY, only a few miles away from the CA border in Chazy.

Yesterday I was able to put another 100+ miles on her, and I feel much better now. The hesitation in the low rpm range definitely smoothed itself out and isn't as noticeable as it was before. I believe a combination of myself being used to my last tune/setup and this being a brand new engine just took me off guard. It feels more natural and not as much as a "miss". She definitely has some waking up to do so I plan on performing the break in period best I can and then let her eat. Thanks for the suggestions, it was probably mostly me !

Also I swapped the wheels for my signature's so I will post some pics soon.
