Gtec is a waste of money IMHO.
Have you ever used one? They are very fun to play with and shockingly consistent. I love mine.

Must have been a defective unit or just user error. It took me about a half hour to really get comfortable with using it and figuring out the best way to set it up. Once I got it all figured out, it was great. I can move it between cars in less than a minute.

i'd rather have the 4.57 gears since they are stronger and purpose built for the S2k. (4.77 gears are mazda gears)
however, i also noticed there was some question as to the validity of the cryo treatment that was done to those 4.77 gears too.

GOOD ONE!! HAHAH .. What numbers did it say you had. The problem we had it wouldnt keep up with me revs.
On a cold day with my girlfriend in the car and not the best traction, I got 0-60 in 6.50 seconds from a stoplight. I spun the hell out of the wheels when I shifted to second. On my horsepower runs I consistently get 185hp readings. Keep in mind, the horsepower readings will be a bit low because it does not take aerodynamic drag into consideration. If you go to the G-Tech forums, there is a very simple mathematical formula to calculate true horsepower.
I will take it out to the drag strip this spring and test it against the timing lights to see how accurate it really is. But, from the runs that I have completed, i would have to guess that it is amazingly accurate as well as consistent.
