So after owning a 19 GT pp1 mangnaride ordered from factory and almost 40k miles on it all by me, I can say for a fact sport plus is absolutely not more aggressive in downshifting vs track. Maybe they changed the tuning but track mode on the car is definitely more aggressively downshifts with braking.

[@purge_racing]

Mine doesn’t auto downshift in auto. Does the options on the car make a difference?? I’ve been trying to figure this out for the longest time.

[@here_for_the]

Ur '18 dash @ bout 18:30 in shows 3 icons in middle screen. My '19 Bullitt looks the same till Ihad it at dealership for sone work, unrelated to dash system. In fact they told me they did NOT LOAD or change any part of the software or update it. Soon as I departed dealer, i know had a "shock absorber/dampner" icon in the lower left making the center screen on dig dash show this 4th setting. So its a picture of a coilover shock icon & says next to it what "mode" the mag ride is in. My Bullitt was built in early '19. & dealer says they updated nothing in software during visit. This icon's job appears to "verify" ur Mag Ride setting along w/which driving mode you are in. Can anyone speak to this topic of how off show rm floor no icon. After dealership visit I know hav this on my M6 Bullitt which is 100% stk. I understand updates happen. But when told NO software updates were apart of the cars visit, & now I clearly hav another icon filling 4 corners vs 3 corners like your screen around ~18:30 mark. Now u did a video on how to tell if ur car has Mag ride. Im pointing out that I have a dash icon on my Bullitt that shows which mag ride setting Im in at any give time I adjust from normal/sport/sport +/ track.. ect.. Anyone care to verify or deny seeing a shock Icon just to left of the Active Exh icon setting on a digital dash like our '19 Bullitt? ( edited dwn from orig post.)

[@FalcondelSur]

Nice vid! Im from México and looking forward to get a 2021 GT, in our market there are no pp, only 1 version what you can get. BTW, I noticed at the end of the video that you use the paddles to shift from 3rd to 4th gear and it reacted pretty slow compared to previous moments, does it have something to do with how hard you step on the gas when using the manual mode shifting? Perhaps hard acceleration enhances quicker shifts? Thanks!

[@steedaautosports]

If I recall correctly, export GTs all have Performance Package installed. At least I know that is how it is in the Euro-spec vehicles. And sometimes shifts are a bit delayed. All depends on what's happening with the car at that time. It's not like it's sporadic, though. Very easy to get used to! -Chris

[@matthewharrington2431]

Listen sport plus is fine. You have a good time with that.

[@juliocarrillo3536]

Nice video! very precise explanation.

[@machdaddy6451]

Found out, from someone on KZbin, that if you are in normal mode and shift the transmission to S then you will get more aggressive shifts and accelerating from a stop.

[@sgjarrod8491]

Awesome explanation! I have the selectable modes on my premium 19 pp1. My buddy just got a 20 base gt, without mode selection. How does his car differ? Is it just like mine in normal with traction control on/off? How does that work with a tune? Would his just always drive like mine in sport+ with being able to turn traction control on/off? Both cars are 6spd.

[@jizzyjake6783]

They don't give you drive modes in the base gt? What a bunch of cheap asses.

[@BMock590]

I had a 17 v6 before getting my 20 GT w/ drive modes. In his case, putting it in sport will change the throttle response... In an auto, downshift rpms changed in sport, but that won't matter if he has a manual

[@AfterX1]

I wish he touched on the throttle sensitivity more. Keeping his pillow reference, S+ is a thinner pillow, opposite of Snow/Wet; in Track mode, the throttle response is 1:1. I've never used Drag, but would assume based on what I saw in his MyMode section, that it would remain 1:1 as if in Track mode. Hope this helps.

[@sinnedam]

Where are you getting that info from? Not doubting you as it feels to me the same as you describe. My question is - Are track/drag exactly the same shifts/throttle only one has traction control and the other doesnt?

[@DippinItUp1]

@@sinnedam Just chiming in here as I just got a 23' GT with the drive modes. Track mode definitely feels linear similar to normal mode for throttle. Drag mode is way more sensitive almost like you installed a pedal commander onto the throttle. I personally like driving in this mode in my manual GT base as it feels responsive on initial tip in for the throttle.,

[@MrDahkilla]

I started driving in Dragstrip mode and like the throttle response and exhaust sound. Not to mention “traction control” to avoid “any crowd” lol

[@Gkdjsifuofofk]

How would a 2018+ GT PP1 10 speed do against a GT350 around the track?

[@TheKevinHermon]

If the track is slow and technical, GTPP1A10 takes it. If it’s bigger and more wide-open, the higher-revving Voodoo engine will win out.

[@steedaautosports]

From the factory, the GT350 would be much better at handling, throttle response, etc. Once you add some suspension and handling mods on the PP1, you would definitely be at least competitive!

[@machdaddy6451]

Wish there was a way, with the 10R80, to do a "tunnel rev".

[@arcane791]

is it normal that in gears 3-7 the 10r80 wont make any exhaust noise even at high RPM? I've got a H pipe. But besides the transmission whine there's no exhaust noise unless I throttle it and when I let off rpms will be high mainly 2.5-4k but noise is completely gone.

[@hashemhani7743]

Hey I have a automatic 2016 mustang and was wondering if I use sport+ do I have to use the paddle shifters?

[@steedaautosports]

Nope, no need to use the paddle shifters if the driving mode is in Sport+! They’re optional unless the gear selector is in “S”. Even then, it’ll shift for you, but if you use the paddles at that point, it’ll lock in that gear till you use the paddles again. You can use the paddles in “D” on the gear selector regardless of driving mode and it will eventually revert back to shifting on its own after a few seconds. Hope this helps! -Chris

[@JasonCihak1]

So I have to disagree, I think you should list it as D, then S, Regular sport is what ford expects most drivers to drive in. Thats why it acts like S+ but is way more forgiving and you don't have to toggle into it.. you just shift to S. Other than that I agree, solid video good for newbs not everyone is a car nerd lol 😆

[@Ramblequist]

IF you have the gear selector in S to use paddles, will car take over if you are in say gear 8 then come to a stop and change gear for you if you fail to down shift?

[@steedaautosports]

Yeah, it will eventually shift for you if you come to a stop. Otherwise the car would stall out LOL. -Chris

[@lordwilliamwallace9979]

What about Launching in Drag mode?

[@jaganjacob5849]

Hi Boss,What is difference between D mode with sports + And S mode with sports plus ?

[@steedaautosports]

S on the gear selector is more or less the ability to use the paddle shifters and hold the gear. If you want the true "Sport Plus" experience, than use the toggle switch to switch the drive mode to S+ which will enhance the traction control, throttle response and stability control along with the active exhaust and MagneRide, if equipped. Hope this helps! -Chris

I talked to Steeda recently and they have no Steeda Magne-ride Springs so did you say a blunder? I have Magne-ride PP1 Active Exhaust and 10r80non my 2018 GT and its great but I wish car was lower. I haven't factory wheels. I live like 10 mins from Steeda in FL maybe someone there can help with upgrades?

Of course! I'm not sure who you talked to, but we have two spring offerings for Magne-Ride equipped Mustangs. They're linked below! This vehicle has the MagneRide Sport Springs. -Chris www.steeda.com/steeda-555-8242-s550-magneride-sport-lowering-springs www.steeda.com/mustang-magneride-lowering-springs_555-8243

@@steedaautosports Chris, If that car has Magnaride why didnt the suspension icon show when you were setting up My Mode?

I gave a 2019 gt premium and I love it. I am bummed that it came with 18 x 8 wheels and has puny 235/40/18 tires that sit an inch inside the wheel well. Does any one know if I can swap out to 18 x 9's and put 275 all around? Would this be a good set up? I don't want to stagger so that I can rotate tires but want that wider stance. If I put 275's all around, do I need spacers or can the tires fit without affecting suspension etc...? Thanks all!

In "theory" they say you can get up to 305s in the back and 285s in front with stock wheels...in practice it's like 285 all round.
