    Its been awhile since ive posted, but have been busy with things.. I have a 2006 GXP and recently did a 1.15 G accel pull and that was with quite a bit of wheel spin in 1st and pulled harddd in 2nd! my previous best was a .87 before installing a intake from CAI, a 93 octane and trans tune.. and straight piped from the cat back.. only other changes are Bonni GXP wheels all around.. I was wondering what does that generally convert to in 1/4 mile times.. I did a bit of searching for accel G's on different cars to kind of get a idea. The best I could find to anything getting close to 1 G was a Viper RT 10 with .99 g's or a '95 Porsche 911 turbo with 1.01 g's wich had 1/4 mile times of mid 12's to low 13's .. is there any truth to this? if so wow..

    that sucks. id try out some apps then, theres the TRC app does 1/4 mile and stuff. but it will never be the exact same as the prepped track and real timing lights.

    most get a 14 ish out of em, give or take, not lighting fast.

    Use the hptuners track addict app. Mine was 1 tenth and 2 mph off my actual track time. Now, there are many variables and it's possible it was a fluke, but I bet if you take the average of 3 or 4 runs it will be pretty darn close.
