The 60% of the fuel injector thing was told to my friend by the owner of Olympia Motors where he purchased the car. It may be incorrect but I don't think it's something as minor as tweaking the throttle bodies. When you push the button in his car it made a pretty drastic differenc.

In which case I would think it has to affect peak power. Unless the ECU comes into play and uses different mapping.

my boss has one and i ride in it on a regular basis. let me tell you it is amazing. the same way that saying the s2k is a miata on steroids is doing our car injustice, saying the Z8 is an s2k on steroids is just as demeaning to the bimmer. and yeah, the sports button makes a huge difference!!!
