G-tech owners... post figures here!
Let's see ya put ya numbers where yer signature is! ;)
0-60
ET & Trap Speed
Peak instantaneous G's under acceleration
Peak instantaneous G's under braking
Stopping distance (60-0)
As a starter, mine are as follows (mods in sig):
0-60: 5.46
ET & Trap Speed: N/A (haven't tried yet)
Peak instantaneous G's under acceleration: 0.79
Peak instantaneous G's under braking: 1.09
Stopping distance (60-0): N/A (haven't tried yet)
All above figures are based-on brand new Dunlop SP9000's on the back and Michelin Pilot SX MXX3's up-front.

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (i_york)
My best 0-60 has been 4.64. This was with only intake mods with K&N.
Haven't done any since I added the headers or got Kumho tires.
I did one 1/4 mile run all stock and it was 13.24 don't remember the speed.

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (i_york)
I'm still trying to figure out to install and use mine (a buddy loaned me his). My first attempt at a 0-60 yielded me a 5.52. I was horrified. I'm discovering that it takes much skill to drive a MN6 quickly, the A4 guys just point and shoot.
It may not have been level and I really didn't get on very hard the first time out with it, plus there was some traffic I was concerned about.

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (BlackSun!)
The new competition model is extremely accurate. Some of my numbers are in my sig below. For those of you struggling to break into the 4s for 0-60, don't be discouraged, it does take a very strong launch. I have a friend with an LPE Supercharged C5 who couldn't break into the 4s with the stock run flats...

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (BlackSun!)
How accurate are these??? :confused:
Thinking of getting one... :yesnod:

Although power is not quite so useful due to the measurement being net of aerodynamic and frictional losses. ET and trap speeds are also very accurate. I'd recommend it... even if just for novelty value :)

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (Bertrand)
Get a Tazzo, more accurate and gives you 60 fts, by themselves, 0-60,1/8 and 1/4. When In ran mine at the track, it was spot on, right to the hundreth on the 60, within a couple hundredths on et and about 3/4 mile fast on mph. Much better construction than the G-tech Pro. My G-tech is now held together with duct tape and the wires have been resoldered three times. But it still works, but I much prefer the Tazzo...

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (lost)
Several 5.0x on 60's degree day 2001 A4, 3.15. Using ZO6 exhaust, blackwing, predator tuning,and the pvc mod thats supposed to make it sluggish. Leave at 1500 RPM and roll on the throttle. also a TPIS ported TB. These times are 0-60 MPH on a good clean road. May take off the PVC mod but I'd be amazed if it helped. :seeya

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (itsonlyairandfuel)
just got one and did a couple of runs.
Traction control on
1/4 13.40 @ 111.2
1/4 13.44 @ 109.9
TC off - just a little bit of smoke
1/4 13.19 @ 111.8 (4.8? 0 to 60)
And a
0 to 60 5.05
These are with 170# of extra ballast in the pass seat
:D
I think I'll go out and play some more :lol:

Great times for first attempts! Do you have an A4 or a 6-speed? :steering:

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (i_york)
When I first got the car, I did some with a friend's Gtech
~500 miles - 0-60 in 5.0
~1500 miles - 0-60 in 4.8
~2500 miles - 0-60 in 4.6
Right around 2500 I also took it to the track and got a 13.0x@109.x
The road I did the runs on was pretty new asphalt...good grip, even with the runflats.
I got a G-tech of my own recently at about 25K miles. Best I've done so far is about a 5.0x, that's with Stingers, Vortex and Nitto 555's! I think it's the road though, just not good enough traction, too dirty. The car definitely pulls harder than new. I also get a little grind every time I do the 1-2 shift hard. What's up with that? A bad synchro?

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (i_york)
stomp and steer :D
A4 3.15 vararam and predator stock program with firmed up shifts. 57 degrees with brand new runflats.
just played around a bit with out the ballast (my son ;) )
0 - 60
4.71
5.5 to much burnout.
1/4's
13.04 113.7
13.22 110.8
13.27 111.8 (power braked it a bit and active handling kicked in cuz it went sideways a little)
13.26 111.5 head lights up.
and a couple of short runs for HP (with the headlights up)
up towards 95mph 295H
quit at the 2-3 shift 286H
I'll try that part again when the chance for deeries is a little smaller (daylight)
:thumbs:
Got to work on my launches a little :smash:

Re: G-tech owners... post figures here! (xilr8n)
One of my Cobra buddies and I went in on the GTech together so that we could race each other.
I pulled a 3.6x 0-60 a couple of times
I only made two attempts at 1/4 mi. passes: 12.9 and 12.0
