I recently bought a 2006 Miata NC and the elctronic throttle has about a half second delay. I press the accelerator but it takes half a second for the engine to react. This makes it difficult to pull away and change gear smoothly.
Has anyone else noticed this? Can the delay be reduced?

 

ive heard of the opposite effect happening.. you take your foot off the gas, and the revs stay where they are for half a second or so, and im pretty sure that can be fixed, so your problem should be fixable too..
it would be controlled with the computer,
im not a carcomputer guy, so maybe some one else on this forum will be able to help you
