I am comparing it to the edge and smarty and the lower end with a five speed has never lagged like the adrenaline is doing but the top end has never been better. I live in Alaska with alot of steep inclines and when i have to slow down for slow moving gassers the engine isnt getting the fuel in the lower RPM range like the smarty would.
I lived in ER for 8 years and moved in the summer of 06.
Have you tried the Aggressive tunes?

Mine has a slight lag also, it just doesn't feel as responsive as it should on the bottom end. Different tunes have no effect on the lag. Mine is an auto. At least now I know that I'm not the only one that notices this.
Quad and I PM'd back and forth a few times the other night on this matter and we didn't come to an agreement on the cause. Maybe it's just the nature of this box, IDK. I hear some guys say it's awesome off of the bottom end and some guys have a little lag off of the bottom end. I'm hopin that Stage 3 of the beta testing might help solve this problem.
And yes, the Pulse monitor is the fashizzle
. I may even take out my analog gauges when the testing is complete.

I believe that pause you guys are feeling is a result of quad turning down the low end power for the production tunes as a result of lots of us have a bad surge (early on in testing) at very light throttle.
I can assure you that you will be able to have however much low end response and power you could possibly want when all the features are out. Some of the early beta softwares had CRAZY low end response... Really too much as it was very hard to drive.

what is the difference between the pulse & commander?
if i remember correctly there are 3 stages to the adrenaline testing. commander was stage 2, is the pulse stage 3 - or is stage 3 still coming?

Stage 2) Pulse monitor. The Commander will not work with the Adrenaline, only the Pulse monitor.
Stage 3) Still to come.
