Yeah, I hate that with my Honda CRV. Didn't know the Civic Si did that too.

I tried brake boosting from a 40 roll and my car just cut throttle, probably something that has to be coded out.

I do it at the track sometimes. Maybe turning off traction control completely helps.

Nice to see someone is able to use the search. Many others would ask, "whats the pedal dance". The OP obviously either already knew what it was or searched for it.

That being said....putting additional load on the driveline to build boost before launching(I presume that is the goal here), seems like a not great idea on the stock clutch. I think a lesser evil would be setting launch mode with a tuner to hold revs around 2.7-3.3k... but I could be wrong, that might be worse.

In any case, I look forward to reading OP results.

So I didn't want to respond until I was confident I had thorough results. Learning to turn traction control off was a process in and of itself. It seems that yes, you can left foot brake with traction control turned off.

I thought this would be the solution, thank you!!
