I am looking to purchase a G-Tech Pro RR performance meter (http://www.gtechpro.com/rr.html) before I start modifying my stock Cobalt so I will have baseline performance numbers. Does anyone have a G-Tech Pro RR performance meter? If so, are you happy with it? What horsepower, torque, 0-60 mph, and 1/4 mile numbers does the meter show for a stock Cobalt SS/SC? If you have made improvements to your car, how have the performance numbers from the G-Tech meter compared with the manufacturer's claims for whatever part you installed?

 

i had it but is really a pain in the ass to set up cuz ur car has to be on a flat surface with all the information punched in accurately and even after that the rpm calibration part is always off i could never get it accurate that is on my stock cobalt ls but every car is different cuz i tried it on my saturn and it was pretty accurate so it really depends on the car

Do you have any performance data from the meter that you can post? What horsepower, torque, 0-60, and 1/4 mile times did it register? Is it too hilly where you live to get a full run on flat ground? I wonder why the rpm calibration is off for the Cobalt, but not for your Saturn... Did you do the rpm calibration with radio off? I was reading about the calibration for the rpm's, and the instruction manual said that electrical "noise" from other electrical components in the car can throw off the calibration. All things considering, would you recommend this product to others?

Does anyone else have any experience with this meter?
Thanks
Eric

 

sorry for the late post

no i have no data cause i didnt get the cables with my package, i had all my electical equipment off and it didnt really help with the calibration but even on the saturn when i got it calibrated the rpms would get random jumps and it messes up the reading even the shift light would come on almost a thousand rpm after i set up the shift point so honestly i wouldnt recomend it because its not accurate enough for the cost and also its a headache to calibrate.

 

Does anyone else have this meter? What other performance meters would you recommend?

 

I just purchased my Gtech Pro RR performance meter from Jeggs. I love it! It is by far the best thing I have purchased for my car. I am learning so much about launching technique by comparing my 60 foot times.

I was able to perfectly calibrate my tachometer using the 2,000 rpm and 4,000 rpm calibration points and option #16 on the calibration adjustment. I am enjoying comparing my car to other cars who's data is available on http://www.forums.gtechpro.com/. It is cool to compare the Cobalt SS/SC to an SRT4. The G-force graph is particularly revealing in comparing a supercharged car to a turbo car.

I am hoping someone else on this website has the Gtech Pro RR performance meter because I would love to compare our data.
