Tony should be getting kickbacks from GTech.

Alright then. We've got enough turbo kits and superchargers. Now we need someone to tackle installing Quattro. Then we wouldn't be delayed like this!

Maybe I shoud bring down my home made SD'ed '85 and give you a run for your money!
My brother was sent, by he's company, to MI for 2 months. He's staying somewehere around Rochester Hill, if needed I can stay with him for the weekend.

Went out today and got a pretty nice run in. This was on the freeway. I was able to pull over and wait until there was a nice break in traffic and then let her rip! Had to let off a little as I approached traffic. But I got my best 0-60. Less than 4.4 sec.
Actually I ended up passing a new GTO with 2 kids in it. They wanted to race so we slowed down to about 30, and then I let them see my *** up to about 110! Fun! Lots o fun!
THen I woke up from my dream. But somehow the run was still in the G-tech

Maybe this was asked already - what do you have the pitch and rollout set to?
I should be receiving the results from a pair of local modified ZO6 Corvette's using a G-Tech. Want to keep things apples/apples.

One of the big issues to getting faster times is in the shifts. I had a 91S4 Auto and a 91GT five speed. Even thought the GT out G's the S4, the auto was smoother and actually gives a small boost in G's when it shifts as opposed to the 5 speed where acceleration drops to slightly negative during the shift.
Tony pointed out the smoothness of the auto curves. If you look at the G charts for Andrew back on post #44 you can see that his shifts are in the 0.5 to 1.0 seconds range. By the time you get to fourth gear that's 1.5-3.0 seconds of the car not accelerating on its way to the 1/4 mile! A significant fraction of the 12.6 second quarter mile time.
If you can make your shifts twice as fast, you'll knock 0.3-0.6 seconds off your quarter mile, and maybe 0.2-04 off your 0-60 time.
Of coarse my shifts on my GT are not much different than Andrews, but I practice at being quicker.
