i might not be the best person to answer this but, i would say get it tuned, maybe a map is wrong. when I had problems with my gst i took it in to get tuned to a reputable shop and every single problem went away (had a friend tune it origionaly) I had almost the same issue that you did with the hesitation when letting off the gas. but it wasn't a civic so not sure if that will help

still think a tune will help that. that at least gives you a good place to start.
