If this topic is in the wrong place let me first apologize.

Maybe someone out there can satisfy my curiousity before I drop some bucks here.


Has anyone tried one of these G-Tech Perfomance meters on their mustang?

How well does it work?

How exactly does it work?

Am I to understand that this thing just plugs into your cigarette lighter?

Thanks for the help in advance guys!

One of the car magazines did a nice write up on the different ones, I will have find out which issue it was in.

 

Excellent...

Thanks.

My friend has one of the older ones, havent tried it in the mustang but did with my t-bird. It essentially uses physics to calculate when you reach 60 and 1/4 mile etc. The cig lighter is only for power. At a stop you press the button to zero it out then it calibrates itself and when ready you go. Worked pretty well. I'm not sure if it's 100% accurate, but probably does a decent job.

 

They work quite well. It was rated very high in C&D (I think it was C&D). The accuracy is fairly good but more importantly, it is very consistant so you can compare times with various mods on your car.

 

You have a cigarette lighter in your car? Where? Must be aftermarket. Or does one of the other inputs work the same?

 

We are refering to the powere outlet on the dash.

I was looking around for gauges to throw into the a pillar and found this neat little toy. Essentially a lightweight version of the G-Tech, but you dont have that big thing sitting on your dash.

 

Ford does sell a conversion kit to make it a lighter though.

 

Wow - neat!
Anyone know anything about this one?
