dont use the time or the hp as a guide. Just because you ran 12.3 on the G-tech does not mean your car is 12.3 second in the 1/4 miles. What I am saying is that if you ran your car and it was 14.2 and then ran it again after a mode and it was 13.8, you've improved it by 0.4 second. It does not mean your car is NOW 13.8. For all I know, it was really running 16.8 in the 1/4 and after the mod it now runs 16.4 sec... get it? its only good for the change in time not necessarily the absolute time.

ooh ok i get it ;) so basiclly its pretty much to help you find out how much a certin mod may have helped

In my case, it wasn't even close to accurate

THose new ones look pretty pimp and ----. Shift light and tach. But too much for my wallet when I can get that CEL shiftlight with uber and a ricer tach for half the price. :P
