Here's the problem Joe.....
The G tech isn't a performance computer or upgrade, it's a "accelerometer".
If it's properly set up and the test area is adequate, it can estimate 1/4 mile
times, mph, hp, and it also can evaluate g forces in cornering and braking.
It's similar to a radar detector in size and mount.
They're about 150.00 for the best one.
