this pretty much sums up the experience of driving this car. this is constant for me and ive always chocked it up to DBW, because just about every DBW car i drive does the same thing, my moms TSX, my fiancees civic si, any of the newer cars i test drive at work... pretty much all of them. it makes it feel like a jerky take off. as far as the trouble as oil temps rise and loosing response, sure it happens to me, but not anything like some of these guys are describing.

so far we have decently conclusive evidence the following dont fix the problem being described:
1. oil coolers
2. reflashes/tunes
3. different engine oils
4. dealers
5. dealers
6. oh yeah... dealers

some have suggested the sprint booster thingy and swear by it... idk.
