power mode all the time in all my Lex.
Except when I had my IS300, in power mode it shifts rough.

on and off, I feel like the throttle opens up a lot more when in pwr mode. At least with my k&n you hear it get much louder in power mode...

Normally I just tug around in normal. I only have so much gas to get around in.

But when I get that ricer with the Honda Civic that wants to test out that new sticker's horsepower, I flip it into power and turn off the traction (just to feel like the Hoffmiester in KITT) then open a can of whoop a$$ when the light turns green

In the snow, well uhm I use the snow mode....

You can save gas by using the snow mode? If so, I might turn that on during rush hour traffic...

Snow mode just keeps the throttle from opening as much. Also, the downshifts take a lot more pressure on the gas pedal. And snow mode still starts in 1st gear, not 2nd. It's just the reduced throttle makes you feel like the car is starting in 2nd gear.

As for which mode I use. I used to always be in power mode, but now I use normal mode. Reason being that the power mode downshifts too readliy...a slight nudge on the pedal will initiate a downshift. In regular mode you have to give the pedal a good 40-50% down until it downshifts. It's beneficial for me since I have so much power. I just spin and smoke the tires at 30-40mph if the car downshifts lol. Sometimes I even cruise in snow mode so I can stay in 5th gear and still hold 15psi boost on the highway.

It's fun to beat a Honda when he's giving it all his go, and you're in 5th gear chillin

Usually keep it on normal, but sometimes I have to switch to power and turn off VSC to handle my business ... If snow mode saves gas please tell me because I'll keep it on 80% of the time

Sometimes power mode but since I put my rims back my car feels like it is in Thirst mode gas mileage is suffering bad so no power mode for me only if I really need it.
