Sport Chrono - Rear wheel bias?

Hey guys,

I heard that engaging the Sport Chrono creates a more rear-wheel drive bias. Is this true, and if so, by how much?

I recently contacted the dealership but they said it most likely doesn't (not sure if they knew for sure). Thoughts?

As far as I know it does not. It increases boost for up to 10 seconds under full throttle, it sets the PASM to sport (this can be turned off), it increases the slip angle prior to PSM kicks in and etc., but not the F/R power split. In these cars that is always on and power is distributed based on traction.

It dials back the level of PSM effectively making it less obtrusive thus allowing more slip. This, coupled with the remapped throttle (with SC ENGAGED) results in what seems like more rear wheel bias.
