You mean how you alter the modulation. Again, semantics maybe...but you cannot change the system lag until you figure out how to make electrons move faster from point a to point b. This seems to be the problem many have with how some are describing the system.
Electrons should be moving at the speed of light, right?
I will say it again, Normal Mode on these cars is ridiculous. Sport and Track mode makes it feel like a totally different car. These products replicate those modes. And it is definitely worth the price if you're not planning to tune. For the record, the day I drove my GT home, I was immediately having a bit of buyer's remorse after driving it in Normal Mode for that first day. But once I started putting it in the different modes, completely different feel. I would have traded this car right back in already if there were no mode selection on my car and none of these products available. It almost feels like Normal Mode is a gas saving mode. Maybe it is to keep the MPGs down. But I gotta say, in NM, this car can barely get out of it's own way. To whomever may get offended by what I said, take that with a grain of salt, I'm not dishing on it, I'm just stating what we all know, lol!! But anyway, this would have been the first mod if I didn't have the Premium.
This is absolutely part of it. Driving in normal mode is perfectly suitable for daily driving. It makes it easier to modulate the throttle...and easier to accelerate slowly and smoothly from a stop.
I don't care how fast you push the pedal down, Normal mode is nothing more than a gas saver mode. I feel like it was designed so Ford could report lower MPG numbers. Even my Grand Cherokee with the Hemi engine has better throttle than my Mustang by far. And my Camaro SS, that thing just blasts off. My GT, I love it, but in Normal mode, it can barely get out of it's own way. Track mode makes a world of a difference. The fact that you'll have to mash the pedal down as fast as you can every time you want decent acceleration is pitiful. Even knowing to mash it down faster, and even doing it, it still in no way compares to one of these devices. Not even close. I don't ever use Normal mode at all, not even in the rain. The last time I did, I got left behind by some normal car because of the dang lag. And every time I used it in the past, same thing. In Track mode, which I use 100% of the time, there is a big improvement. These cars need help with throttle control, LOTS of help and bad.
To each their own. I use normal mode daily. When I want to go faster, I push the throttle down more.
If Normal mode was soo great, and if it were just a matter of pushing the pedal down faster, then there would be no need for Sport and Track mode and you would never use it...nor would you ever feel any difference in those modes. Or, if it were that simple, you could just drive in Snow/Wet mode all day and just press the pedal faster when you want to. But as it is, you do use it and you have to admit that you do feel a difference in those modes. That is what the controllers do. Whether it is modulation or what, I'm not arguing that. I am saying that it replicates what Sport and Track mode does. But yea, to each their own. I would never try to convince anyone to get something they don't want or care for. But I am saying to those who are interested that it does work, it does make a difference, and you will like it. If you don't want a tune, and if you have a non-Premium model, then this is your best bet.
Sport and track mode do more than change throttle modulation. They also turn off many of the traction control nannies. Same goes for the snow/wet mode.
Does anyone how much (quantitatively) is the throttle changed with sport and track mode?
