Hello Steven, the world is so small:) I found your homepage half a year ago and posted it here in some other thread because it might be a well performing workaround. Good luck and maybe you all have a good success that could be a solution for many riders.

Aquasurf, assuming you could develop a 3.7 specific QRevs box that offers a cure for Morgan owners, I think you would have quite a few potential buyers and a few Mustang owners as well

My Friend who recently took delivery of a U.S. 3.7 2019 Roadster Now has several 100 miles and has experienced "Rev Hang", however so far it has not been a problem for Him. He says. I still have not driven His 3.7 and as the Weather is iffy doubt I will be able to until Spring.

Just a thought:
Our Jan-17 MINI Clubman seems to have a feature which may be relevant. The car has a fly-by-wire throttle - so there is elektickery between foot and throttle response. It also knows which gear you are in - it has an annoying display which tells you which gear you are in and which gear you should be in. I have noticed that when, for example, changing down from 4th to 2nd in advance of a very tight bend, the car automatically increases the revs to match the gear to the road speed. Yet another automated thing that takes pleasure away from driving.
Could it be that the 3.7 ECU has this feature clumsily disabled?
