Biggest pain in the arse is in 1st when trying to go slow in traffic, or cruising at 50-60kms. I have to keep coming on and off throttle slightly to keep a constant speed (which is kinda fun anyway).

I've just had a total rebuild and it's still doing it, though I've yet to get a retune as I'm stilling running in, so I'll let you know what happens after the tune (which won't be until after Targa West)
steady throttle at 2-3k rpm would be in closed loop mode of the factory ecu which wouldnt change with an aftermarket tune anyway would it??

so if? thats correct it would have to be a sensor/afm etc feeding info to the ecu

Interesting. Will get the tuner to check this out when he has it in to do the dyno tune. Now that I've identified it, it keeps bugging me while I drive so if I don't get it fixed, I'll continue to obsess about it...
