Is Comfort mode worthless on 2022?

[Devin]

My assumption is that Comfort mode is worthless. There is no ECS, so what does comfort mean? I get about the same mileage on Eco as I get in Comfort, and Comfort isn't really fun, so if I don't want to lay into the throttle and hold my RPMs higher than I may as well use Eco.

Sport is the only mode that works! All others stink, LOL. (sorry, no help here.) Honestly though, I can't get used to the throttle response in any other mode. I don't drive a lot of miles so no need to worry about gas consumption though.

The only time Comfort is worth anything is if you want a 60/40 split on traction instead of 80/20 in Sport.

 

[WRXtoStingerGT]

Yeah I drive either in Sport or Eco.

Eco is for highway cruising (and at times the "coast" gets enabled) and Sport is any other times I am driving. I manually choose to shift early to keep the RPM's low and not waste fuel... I find comfort and smart just pathetic to be honest... very weak throttle response and such annoying delays... if you wanna keep the car at lower RPM's just manually shift up to a higher gear and call it a day...

Is this on all trims/years or just the 2022 GT2?

Part out.

I'd have to dig deep, but I would assume all the AWD's have the same split. It's the exact same transmission and differential. Best mode to drive in is Custom. Make everything Sport, except the AWD, put that in comfort. Now you have all the responsiveness of Sport across the pedal, steering, suspension, but a better split for traction.

This is where the pedal commanders/wind boosters come in handy. I drive it in comfort, sport, custom..whichever I’m feeling. The adjustable throttle response makes the normal modes more useable.

Comfort is a placebo. That's the only "difference" I've ever felt.

What do those do?

Allows you to adjust the responsiveness/sensitivity of the gas pedal because it’s all electronically controlled in newer cars.

I've noticed smart mode is actually pretty good. It switches between comfort, eco and sport fairly accurately .

Windbooster/pedal commander frees up the throttle like crazy. If it wasn’t for the sound of the turbos, I would have to guess if I’m in sport or comfort mode..

What's the longest time everyone has use the pedal commander for? I'm seeing a lot of conflicting information about it.

I've had mine on for over a year now. Turned it off a couple times to see what stock feels like after using it, and I will never go back to stock as long as I own my stinger. There is so much dead zone in the pedal from factory

How does it compare to the Race Chip XLR? I want to use some of the features on eco mode but I HATE the throttle response. The car seems to roll much better on eco mode which I like, helps save on gas.

You should use the custom mode for that. Give the AWD part the Comfort setting and the rest should be “Sport” unless you have a WindBooster.

I have my car setup so that ECO mode has the throttle response of “Sport” mode and it remembers that setting. My wife and son drive my car too so I don’t want them to get in it and have the throttle response be too aggressive.

When I get in I just click it over to Sport and then the throttle response is where I want it or I just leave it in ECO if I am driving around town.

I've been enjoying the car fine in comfort mode. I don't find I have any issues if I mash the pedal, it still launches pretty quick.

 

[RM7]

Break in period says not to exceed 4K RPM. I've found that sport will exceed that easily and hold the gear above 4K, so I'm not really using it yet.

all of the pedal tuners are pretty much the same. It will eliminate the dead zone, But eco mode will still be eco mode and not have much power unless you floor it. Unless you adjust the pedal tuner to be super aggressive, but at that point you definitely wont be saving any gas, which defeats the whole purpose of eco mode. And in other modes, it will be so aggressive that it may be difficult to control the acceleration and accelerate smoothly. In short, it makes the throttle what it should have been from factory.
