From what I can tell all it does is increase throttle response (less mashing to get it to downshift) and holds the gear longer before upshifting. In the real world that makes the car "feel" faster. IMO.

This is also misleading. How many people drive in a straight line WOT 0-60 much at all? Unless you are at the strip, nobody can feel the thenths of a second you are losing in ECT PWR with a butt dyno.

If it holds gears longer and throttle response is quicker, then it is quicker for lane changes, passing, merging - I guess just not for 0-60 runs. My "real world" is the first scenario not drag racing.

This topic has been discussed ad nauseum. Just go through an old thread, like the one I linked to previously.
