I'm thinking about getting one of those G-Tech things you se advertised in every car magazine that measure your 0-60, 1/4 mile time etc.

I was just wondering how good they actually are. Are they any good, and are they acurte? Do you think it's worth $140?


Thanks for the help

I think the g-tech is pretty accurate if you set it up correctly and you use it on a level road. Mine has always been within .1-.2 sec of what I run at the track. The mph in a 1/4 mile is always about 5mph high because the g-tech tells you your top speed at the end of the 1/4 mile and at the track it is an average over the last few feet of the track. So if you don't live near a drag strip its a good thing to have to compare your times before and after mods.

I agree I have had really good luck...

The times that it gave were very close and their just fun to mess with on the weekends

Although I dont think that the Horse Power ratings are that great but they a somewhat close..

I think that they are well worth it
