I actually found it pretty accurate. My buddys mustang went 14.1 on the Gtech and 14.2 at the track, both were at 92 MPH.

I've heard that too. Or at least close enough & consistent. Meaning if it is off by 5%, it is always off by 5%. that consistency would make it a useful tuning tool.

Yea, most of the people I've heard talk about the Pro said that it was off a bit, but usually consistent.

Eh.... get track times... that is the proof.

oh and as for the horsepower aspect those things are WAYYYY off. When I used it on the camaro when it was 100% stock it told me i was runnins 13.85 (a reasonable assumption) but i when i was doing the Horsepower part one run it told me i was making 550 Horsepower and another run it told me I was making 97HP

yeah it was really bad in that aspect, but the others were pretty accurate. I didnt believe that it was correct saying my buddys stang was going 14.1 at 92 then we hit the track and it went 14.2 at 92 and i was really shocked.

Because I run 14.9's at 91 MPH on 2.1 - 2.0 60 foots... that MPH seems way low for a 13 sec run, or even a low 14 sec run, to me...
