I've been saying this since the first time I autocrossed mine.... If you want the best throttle response turn off the Traction control. I never use it when I'm autocrossing. The light in the center of the speedometer tells you that the traction control is off or that inspite if the traction control you have lost traction.

As for the 0-60 times. I don't know what the 6 speed does but I did some testing with mine that's posted, I believe, in the "I'm getting mine chipped" thread. I don't remember off hand what the exact numbers were before the chip and K&N but I know that now my times are consistantly 5.3 seconds 0 - 57 mph (shift to second gear).
