Had my CGTS for a week bounce

I set up Individual setting with Sport enable, Auto start/stop disabled, PSE disable. I notice when I switch from Normal to Individual a noticeable (nice - let's not start a how bad the 718 sounds discussion wink ) change in the engine note. PSE is off, when I enable PSE the note changes again.

What's that about?

Higher tickover? Increased fuelling?

Sport mode will change the fuel map and that will account for a difference in the exhaust tone I would suspect.
Noticed it during idle ... will check next time I go out if it changes whilst driving
