tehre is 0.00 diffrence in 0-60 with ect on/off.

at WOT it doesnt make a difference

the only time it does is off WOT where it delays the upshift incase you floor it again soit doesnt kick down a gear again.

but if you fully let off the pedal itll shift up anyway so that would mean no difference in fuel vonsumption.

once again, at WOT tehre is no difference, so rolling along in 4th then plantin git the auto will go back down gears the same wethe rya in ect or not.

no it is a button on older models that prevents shifting generaly until about 250RPM before redline. I beleive they took it out as computers got more advanced because it now seems to turn on automatically with high pedal(gas) pressure.

i think they got rid of it when VVT-i came out, so the last year for it was ~2000
