Maybe I'm slow. Takes about 6 weeks to learn where you want the throttle to rpm to boost to A/F ratio to gear selection in order to max the performance, to be in control, and at the same time on the edge of losing it. Test drives are nice, but to get the most out of the car, you have to learn...

Thank you all for solving a puzzle for me. When going through the options in the configuration list, I kept wondering why there were so many different wheels offered. After reading this thread with all the differing opinions, I see why. Guess that is why they are called options.:cheers:

stiff shocks Hard to drink coffee when running S+ Haven't tried it in track mode yet:)

How much boost is enough? If you can, test drive the EB with PP and automatic. Put the transmission in Sport+ drive mode Select Air/Fuel Ratio for the Gauge in the Driver info panel. Select a road that is straight level or uphill and multi-lane to allow some speed variation Accelerate 20-40...

In Sport+ mode, car spins to the right. Been trying to gain details to figure out when to expect this. Conditions: Moderate acceleration through an intersection, I believe it is in 2nd gear between 25-30, nail throttle, transmission downshifts to first which revs the engine, slight delay...

From what I gather above, V6 can get better mileage. Where the ecoboost has the advantage is the number of ways it can be driven are more varied while keeping in the dame mpg range. There are more combinations of gear/speed/acceleration to choose from. Too bad they didn't put the same effort...

70 degree, PP AT, boost on gauge reads to 24 above 4500 rpm 80 mph, Slightly above speed limit: Problem or opportunity depending on point of view

MPG in Sport mode My commute is a 2 lane 55 mph with many slows for traffic and up and down hills. Speed varies generally from 40 to 55 mph. Displayed mpg in normal drive mode varied from 20 to 24. Engine speed seemed to be lugging (12 to 1500rpm) when at lower speeds and up hills. Changed...

Question about the Ecoboost oil pressure The first 2 weeks the oil pressure gauge seemed to be 60-80 psi, did not notice it going lower than 60. Today it would go down to 20 psi at idle with the engine warm. Seems low. Is this just 'gauge worry ' or normal for this engine? I haven't had a car...
