Effect of exhaust settings on mileage
I'm sorry if this has already been asked, and if this is in the wrong place, please relocate it to the proper place.
I've been wondering if any of you (and I know you're out there) who have tested and driven these cars would know if there is a notable difference in mpg when it's driven with the exhaust in stealth, touring, sport, or track modes? Thanks I |

Yes, because when I'm in Track mode my foot is to the floor!! I honestly haven't seen a difference.

No difference in my testing. Only difference would be in track mode you're more likely to step on it a bit more to hear the exhaust.

All 4 modes close the flaps when you're cruising steady state.

Track is very quiet when cruising.

A little extra psi in the tyres will give you a couple more miles. I run around 40psi at all corners most of the time. Also use cruise control a lot. What part of SC are you in? |

The exhaust makes no difference. But the MODE button makes an extremely small difference. Touring shifts sooner and softer into the next gears. The difference would be negligent at best in stop and go traffic if you drive like a grandma.
