There's a bit of a "lag" to it. When I would autocross and floor it, it wouldn't do it right away, then a turn or slalom would come up and I'd have to let off or brake. I guess it's not horrible but its the only car I've ever owned with DBW and I don't like it. So, I had to flashed to make it a little more sensitive like a real throttle cable.
It'll be swapped soon so I won't have to worry about it anymore

Unless you are willing to do a build on the motor, or even swap to a manual maybe, you won't be getting the throttle response you are looking for.

you won't get anything rumbling or deep from a 4 cylinder.
I left my res on, and just swapped the muffler to a high flow. It sure doesn't rumble but it is surprisingly deeper than I had thought, and not as loud as I thought. I was used to having civics with no res and a straight through. They were 1.5 - 1.7L's, this is a 2.3 and seems to be much deeper imo. Not as raspy / tinny.
