Should the 180 be extremely responsive to the throttle? Mine doessn't seem to have much urgency. Seems a bit strange as my mums 1.4 206 throws you in the seat if the quickly tap the peddle but then loses all power due to the 1.4 but my 180 doesn't. If I remember my celica was the same where it didnt feel as responsive.
Is it due to all the additional sensors and being a bigger engine? Or is there something I can do?
Its just had a service and I've cleaned the VVT Solenoid

Haha you know what I mean just the initial throttle if to jerk on the throttle. My 180 just seems a bit of a let down in the throttle

The throttle will only open so fast with the motor controlling it...

Could be worse, could be a newer 206 TU3 with fly by wire throttle & higher road tax
