lol I thought it was a joke when I read this, but now you guys are saying that it works?! What is it, some sort of calibration technique like what you do when your windows won't go back up or something?

It does indeed work. I saw it posted on the Brad Barnett forum a while back and tried it, my throttle response is GREATLY improved. There is still a tiny lag, but nothing compared to what it was before. The tranny (auto) kicks down right away instead of waiting for a second. The only thing I can figure is it is some kind of a programming override that Ford built in for testing purposes. A nice thing about it is you do it once and it sticks, you don't have to do it each time you start the car.

I thought it wasn't good to floor it if you're in park? (pushing the car without weight)

I don't think he means with the car started.
