Hey Everyone!
I just purchased a beautiful electric blue ES about a month ago and coming from a Fiesta ST, it feels like a much classier ride. One thing that I am trying to figure out is the inconsistent throttle response/power delivery. Ford's 1.6T felt much more responsive and regardless of throttle input, was very consistent. As a car, I like the ES MUCH better but I kinda miss the consistent throttle response from the Ford.
The above thread is talking about the issue I am experiencing, so I am thinking it is a part of the stock tune? Seems odd that at mid-throttle (20 - 80% input) I am getting a stutter/jerking feeling, like the boost is not staying consistent. Can either of our resident tuners (Tork or SXTH-Element) chime in on whether this will be addressed with a tune?
I know most of this was covered in the above thread but thought I would open the conversation again to:
1. Introduce myself since I am a new member!
2. Ask if anyone has found a way to minimize/eliminate this issue?
3. Ask our pro-tuners if their upcoming tunes will eliminate this issue and what sort of gains they are hoping for with just a tune?!
Looking forward to being a part of this community!
