    Well that's unfortunate!

  3. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    LOL, sitting-and-waiting during shifting is the polar opposite of shifting aggressively. I would argue that those that shift slowly and/or wait while shifting are folks who would not notice the rev hang. And conversely those that drive and shift aggressively (i.e. - trying to make quick shifts...

  4. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    Exactly! If a driver who was not "taught to match revs on an upshift" means they that take their sweet time shifting gears -- even when driving aggressively and revving near redline -- then stanleywinthrop is completely missing the point! But as I have been saying, this isn't any everyday...

  5. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    So exactly what is done differently by a"driver who was taught to match revs on an upshift" and a driver that doesn't when both are driving aggressively and shifting near the redline? When driving like that I'm just trying to get a quick gear shift done to get the engine reengaged to put power...

  6. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    Thanks! I am reading that it should be less of an issue in cars with direct injection. I don't think my old TSX has that, but I suspect the new Teg does. I test drove the 6MT Integra back in 2023 when it came out, but the MTs seem harder to find lately. I will track down a dealer with one...

  7. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    It isn't a problem in typical everyday driving, but as soon as I try to drive my TSX aggressively (i.e. kicking up the revs up towards redline) that's when rev hang occurs. From that I can tell, it occurs because the car's electroniccs are trying to keep emissions down which is what I always...

  8. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    Thanks for the reply! How is the rev hang in the your Integra versus your TSX? That is one of my bigger gripes about the TSX; to me it takes most the fun out of the car when trying to do spirited driving.

  9. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    It appears the neutering started with the 11th Gen. MT comments on the 2022 Si: "Likely the biggest issue is the stability control, which is never fully off and won't give you full power until the steering wheel is completely straight, despite the standard limited-slip front differential."...

  10. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    I get what you are saying, but when I see two different established press reviews state the same thing it seems like too much of a coincidence to think the CVT just happened to be better setup in both cases.

  11. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    Thanks for all the replies from everyone! I was already starting to realize that those testing numbers really only represent one scenario that's basically "at the limit" so it is far from a full picture of the handling of a car. I was just initially really caught off guard to see the CVT...

  12. no benefit to the LSD in the 6MT?

    https://www.caranddriver.com/acura/integra-2023 Car and Driver's handling measurements seem to suggest the LSD in the 6MT version of the Integra is somewhat worthless. The heavier CVT version (coming in at 3144 lbs) pulled 0.90g on the skidpad, while the 6MT (at 3062 lbs) could only manage...
