It's not quite like being in sport mode, because when you ease off the accelerator the gears will naturally change up for cruising, unlike sport mode where it will hold the gears and change up at higher revs.
The SB only affects low end acceleration, it basically gets you to full revs earlier in the travel of the pedal.
With the SB you can still cruise if you want, but it brings the power in so much more quickly, when you really want to step on the 'loud' pedal.... That's when it becomes fun!
The SB does not give any more BHP, it just gives the feeling of more power... and it does that extremely well!!
