Active Rev Match question

Active Rev Match question
Hey there my fellow Z06 owners, when using active rev match, I notice that it takes a little dipping into the throttle to extract power whereas with non-active rev match, the throttle is more responsive and doesn't require as much effort.
Is this normal given that engine speed has to be matched on down shifts and therefore a little more throttle application is required?
Any and all advice/thought would be helpful.
Thanks everyone

Haven't noticed any such problem. Haven't used it on track yet but when trying it out on the back road near my home I didn't notice any throttle lag after making my turn in and moving over to the throttle as I drove by the apex. Throttle felt the same whether or not I was using ARM.

Used the Rev Match on the track, road and strip (for no-lift-shift), and it worked for me as advertised. The "trick" is to downshift like it's a race. And by that I mean don't waste time clutching in and out. The computer "blips" the engine as you push the shifter into gear, but it's only at that point that the tranny and engine revs match. The longer you wait the more "off" the revs will be.

Are you saying to not use the clutch at all when ARM is engaged?
