Testing with G-tech gauge lastnight.
Has anyone else used one and was it accurate? I went 14.4 at 102.5 in the 1/4 mile lastnight with really really bad wheel spin. My last car was a turbo (Dodge Daytona, super 60) with a 3500 rpm stall and I am used to doing the biggest power breaker I can. Not a good idea in the 'vette. Bad bad spin! I think I will try no power breaker at all. I made 4 runs and my best 0-60 was 6.4 with all that spinning.

The speed is always 3 or 4 mph higher in the g-tech.
With my stock 90 (only with headers and underdrive pulleys..) I made a best of 5.42 on the 0-60 mph.
?Im couriuos to see the time with my new 383.

They are ONLY accurate AT the track with 0 wheelspin..
On the road, the wheelspin TOTALLY messes them up..I saw 7-8MPH higher than at track with the Gtech's, and between 3-6 tenths too fast..
I tested both , the basic Gtech Pro and the Gtech Competition models. Same results..

I tested my G-Tech Pro at the track at it was within a 10th or less on 3 runs. The mph is always going to be high at the track because of the averaging they do at the end.
You have to set it up correctly for it to be accurate. It must be pointed straight and level.
