It is a bit much when activated. My wife hates PSE even when it's not. I can't say I agree with her.

Not buying that at all.

It's fake, in that there is no reason for it to be happening other than effect. It's real in that yes, it is genuine mild backfiring, not some computerized sound. But the only reason it's there is for effect.

Definitely. Very easy to hear with the roof down on a cabrio.

Actually, it's a good way to pull it off incognito
Hmm... "Pull my finger" then lift, and then blame the smell on the dog

I understand it.

not sure but a non Sport-Chrono (and thus non PSE?) car might not exhibit this.
I didn't realize you needed Sport Chromo to order PSE

I have very few pleasure left in life. Please don't take away my snap, crackle and pop.

Does anyone know in darkness, do we shoot any flames out?

Love the crackle and pop, but yeah it's just for effect and does nothing. Switch to sport plus, which is the real performance mode, and it goes away.
