Its all part of the engine managment,there are two switches both very quietly click on and off.The1 your on about is to tell the 'ecu' that your basicly hammering it-and for the mixtures to adjust to the speed your going.

I wouldn't mess with it, when the car is at full throttle its better to have a richer mixture, you don't want the car to run like that at lower engine speeds.
