Well, I did several runs tonight, got a 7.3 sec 0-60, 182 foot 60-0, and 176 HP readings. Mind you, I got several other readings that were lower (7.45, 7.69 sec and 164, 171 HP. So do these numbers sound like they're accurate? I have a 99SE 5speed w/ JWT intake. I have no stickers, so I'm hoping to get better readings once I install a "Calvin peeing on Honda" sticker. Any input?

That 182 foot brakeing sucks really bad. I hope you didn't have the brakes slammed.

The Maxima should be somewhere under 140 feet stock. Did you lock up and skid for a bit?

braking

actually, no. I didn't slam the brakes, no skidding at all. I'll definitely have to try that again, as I only did the 60-0 once, and I didn't really put alot into it. Thanks Brian.

Seems like it'll tell what you like to hear. Does it have a 0-100 measurement?

My experience with the G-Tech.. good and bad..

First of all, I ran it on my Auto.. Got a 7.2 0-60, and got about 165HP, so figuring they are measuring at the wheels with all the elements and a passanger, that is good. (oh, just intake also)
Now, here is the bad experience, ran my friends maxima 95 Auto at the time, and he couldn't really get a good reading, the HP was below mine. Now, here is why I think he got a bad reading... First of all since the G-Tech has an accelorometer to make it's readings, my friend has the Cattman coilovers and they were set pretty stiff so I think that's why he got the low readings. The car doesn't throw you into the seat because the suspension is stiff.. it's a get up and GO....
