I guess the answer will depend on whether the pedalbox is just amplifying the std throttle sensor signal, or altering it. I have read elsewhere it is just an amplifier, but have no idea if that is correct.
Yes it's an adjustable amplifier.
All the different settings are useful for when you're setting it up to suit your driving style, it doesn't take too long to find which one suits you best.
Eco mode actually dumbs down the ECU side of throttle response and makes the car pretty dull to drive. It won't make the car much more economical, the only reason it's Eco is because it encourages you to use the throttle more lightly by making it non responsive, and that's just what you don't want in a sports hatch.
