Default Woke a sleeping Coyote today!

I like to play a bit here and there, have always just put it in Sport mode and go.

Today I did a quick double tap of the traction control button and turned on AdvanceTrac Sport Mode and put the Transmission in Sport mode, cranked on the pedal and the Coyote came to life and started to howl at the moon. I let off at 160km/hr (100mph) in 3rd gear as I was running out of room. Been playing all day, now I am starting to think if looking at a tune to see what these engines can really do.

You should try it in a RCSB.

It will howl!

Love the title of the thread. They do come alive with the sport button for sure.

I thought you stepped in a coyote den or something. Like people, they're not very nice when rudely awoke.

Sport mode is a tune and you preserve the warranty!!

I'm not sure I would go that far. It changes the throttle response and the shift points. On a dyno I doubt you would see a power increase. That would be an interesting test though.
