Smile Dyno with sports mode

Would there be any difference in the power output with the ISF in normal mode as opposed to sports,trac off,and manual mode on would you end up with the same hp with back to back runs. Has anyone done this .

Probably not because same high gear and tcs shouldn't cut in at all. However, best to run with it off

I guess it depends. If sport mode only compensates the throttle control, then no. But if it controls ignition timing, then yes it will make a difference.

I doubt, but maybe i'm wrong, someone would have a dyno of a normal mode vs sport mode. As mentioned above already I don't think you'd see any changes since it's just changing the throttle/steering response, making shifting a little more aggressive, and making the stability/traction control a little less invasive.

Check your owners manual. On the PDF version I have on page 189 it says this about the sport button and i'm pretty sure it's been covered in several other threads. There is no mention of a timing change.

Your vehicle is equipped with two types of control modes to accommo- date various driving preferences. The control modes can be selected with the F-sport mode total control switch. Normal mode allows secure and smooth normal driving. When the switch is pressed, “Sport” mode is acti- vated. Control characteristics such as the ECT, EPS, VSC and TRAC are adjusted to afford maneuverability closer to what a driver may have imag- ined, while a sense of security is retained.

“Sport” mode/Normal mode

The “SPORT” indicator comes on when in “Sport” mode.

It would still be interesting to see back to back runs just for curiosity, come on some one put your car on the dyno and "just do it" cheers.

Dynos aren't free so may be best for you to pony up.
