Default Re: header cover

well, i dont know how you guys feel about the accuracy of the gtech, but i just started tinkering with it today and got a 15.8 at 90.8 mph. the 0-60 time was 7.33secs. it was the third time i tried(which also happens to be the 3rd time ive ever raced against a time). it seems like it does a pretty good job of starting and stopping when its supposed to, so im going to believe the run to within +/- .19 seconds...lol

this is with practically 0 mods too. the exact list of stuff that could affect this:

lightweight lugs
NGK iridium plugs and wires
Resonator and air duct up until filter box removed


keep in mind, i have NO weight reduction. i know things might be different if i had to line up and go on green, but im sure with practice i could do it. it would be cool if the gtech had a reaction time feature.

I don't really trust gtech. There is way too many factors that could go wrong with gtech. But I'm pretty sure your car is capable of flat 16s smile.gif

now get ur ass to the track!!! lol

I've people who had Gtech's and have never heard anything bad about them as far as inaccuracy is concerned. Everyone has their own preferance. I guess if you don't live anywhere near a track, the Gtech is next best thing. It does work to compare your times with any mods you've made.

the 0-60 time was accurate. it ended exactly when my car reached 60 mph.

I mean they are not bad, but there is way too many things that can affect your accuracy when you race with gtech, on the other hand at the track there is not much that can affect your times, only regural things like temp, track temp, and location of the track.

I think gtech starts counting times a little late, it starts working after you get out of your spin which can affect you times dramatically.

and the tap speed is a problem with gtechs, it's a lil too high, always! with 90mph and traction it should be a low 15 second run smile.gif

You know, with my experience with the Gtech..the toughest part about it is to find a smooth, even road to get times as accurate as possible..A few bumps here and there can throw off the times.

the gtech started right on the dot with me. i did a couple other test spins. if it is late, its not noticeable to humans. i did get some wheel spin through 1st, and a little in second.

i think cyber is right, the road prolly coul have been better. maybe ill go down to MIR and give the gtech a try against the real stuff.
