You can use G-Tech.

A G-tech measure your car's horsepower, 0-60 times, 1/4 mile times, braking distanctes from 60-0, and G forces!! it is a vvery hot item. It is plug and play also so installation is simple. Go to [URL=http://www.gtech.com] for more info. It's easy and cheap so you can't beat that!!

yea i have G-tech also, but it wont give you a graph of what RPM you're making the power

oops sorry just re-read, yea the the G-tech is good for 0-60 and 1/4 mile, i like mine a lot for that ,but the HP i dont like...

SilverGSguy, if i get the apex'i installed and tuned i'll run a 0-60 and tell you how fast it is, the problem here thought is that my mom doesn't know how to launch.. so i think we'll mabye run under 7.8!!

oh well, i'lll tellyou the G forces pulling us back because it tells that too, we'll do one before and after, thats really the only way to test if you dont have a good launcher @ the wheel.... sorry

Question GS Owners Turn

Silver & Y2K - Do U both have GS3's? I'm just curious as to whether or not this APEXi piece will be of any additional benefit to those of us with GS4's & Mo's setup. Obviously as RA pointed out, this module & SRT's ECU do the same thing except from an adjustability standpoint. If ya'll remember some old posts of mine, the RMM intake slowed my car down & made minimal additional power because ( I suspect ) of the lack of adjustability of the factory fuel delivery system which the APEXi seems to give ya control over. Just wondering if it would be worth looking into to try to wring out an additional power that may still be in the V-8. I figure Swift's done a conservative tuning job as well for reliability purposes. This also opens up the avenue of larger injectors ( think nitrous!! ) as the APEXi would appear to offer a way to tune the injectors. Keep us posted & I await your Saturday surprise as I might buy one of those & play!!:eek:

mean gene,

I have a GS400 and will post more info. this weekend. So, I think it would be best to wait until next week if you are planning on doing anything. I really don't want anyone to waste their hard earn money for nothing.
