Anyone ever buy or see the G-tech pro competetion meter. It is supposed to plug in the cig. lighter. They claim that it tells your hp, tq, 1/4 times and handling gs. Just wandering if there the real deal or not.

Where else does it plug into? I am assuming that it's not just the cig lighter. If that is the only places it plugs into, then I am very skeptical.

Hi guys! Yes, I've seen them advertised, but have never used one or even seen one. I'm doubting if it could measure true hp or tq, but for 1/4 times and G-forces, it might be fairly decent. I'd give them $10.00 to put something in my lost cigarette light outlet... Talk to you guys later....

My friends from the integra club I used to be in had them, and they said they were acurate to about .5 of a second in the 1/4 mile.

As for the other stats I cant remember.

3 runs at the track- $20 to $40
1 Dyno session- $100 to $150
Having a time slip and a dyno sheet to back your big mouth- priceless
