I have the competitor to the G-Tech, the 'Tazzo Performance Computer.' When I got it a couple of years ago, it was much better than the G-Tech. It is clearly awesome! G-Tech now has a new model that is every bit as good as the Tazzo, and it appears to have a much better graphic display. I would probably take the new G-Tech if I had a choice.------------------

I have a G-Tech. I hear they are good for 60ft, 0-60 and 1320. Not good for hp testing.

Stoker, Just don't leave your arm hanging out the window while you're making your pass! Ryan P.S. In case you forgot, temperatures don't change at 0-mph or 120-mph; only if you have evaporative moisture available (like exposed skin) does wind chill come into play...
