Re: Civic 2017 HB CVT Questions

So after a couple of drives I have mixed feelings. I was looking for some boosts in power, specifically when I am stopped. There has always been a noticeable lag when I am trying to accelerate quickly into traffic. I was hoping the 6+ psi would reduce that lag so I could feel the turbo quicker. It's subtle, at best. I believe I could feel a good thrust between 20 mph and 60 mph, but then even at stock it performs well when there's already some RPMs in the right range.
Perhaps the ECU is still adjusting but I am still not sure about the changes that were made. Maybe my expectations are off or I need to be educated on where I should see the changes. This is the CARB version and CVT rather than manual, so perhaps there is a difference.
