If the computer senses light slipping on one wheel, it will apply light braking to it. If it continues to slip or it senses heavy slipping, it will cut spark for about a full second.
Whenever wheelspin is detected, the system retards ignition timing, cuts fuel flow, and activates the brakes at one or both drive wheels, in that order.

that's what I thought too...just cuts the fuel.
but this is what i found on http://www.autosite.com/content/Res.../Make_vch/Ford/Model_vch/Mustang/Year_si/2004 (look in the last paragraph in "driving impressions")
My manual doesn't describe how it works other than "the engine will not 'rev-up' when you push further on the accelerator"
