I haven't tried the 0-60 time yet cuz I got to change the oil/filters & stuff and I'm taking it easy until then (though it's very hard for me to resist the temptation... :angry2: )

Like I said, mines all guesstimation, but I think the G-Tech has 0-60 readings.

You are right, the Gtech does have 0-60. It will give you 0-60 while doing quarter mile times, but it will only flash briefly and then the 0-60 time is gone. You can set the Gtech to only give you a 0-60 time as well. I do have an older model Gtech so the newer ones may be different.

I'm reading 6.4, 6.9. Needless to say those are spectacular times for a Tib. You have made your times comparable to cars with prices that are twofold, literally. For your pleasure Odessit and Hotrod, without further ado:

2003 Acura RSX Type S 6.7
2003 Audi TT 1.8 Quattro 7.3
1999 Aston Martin DB7 5.7 (7/10 a second quicker, for a ridiculous price)
2004 Cadillac CTS 3.6l 6.6
2004 Chrysler Crossfire (6 speed) 6.4
1988 Ferrari 328 GTS 6.7
1986 Ferrari 412 6.7
2003 Honda S2000 6.3
2004 Mazda 6s 3.0L 5 speed 6.4
2004 Mazda RX-8 6.4
1994 Toyota Supra 6.9
2004 Volkswagen GTI 1.8t (auto) 8.1

Sorry, I found that rather...impressive.

Seeing that I'm at a mere 8.5 sec I'm hoping CAI will drop me down to less than 8. ATX can be awfully slow at times, especially throughout 1st gear. Tibby is severely underpowered, and it damn well DESERVES to be fast. The power output stock just fails to sate the aggressive, sporty styling. Come on now, we have that styling of a six-digit car for merely a splintered fragment of the price.
