I own a 93 Z28 automatic with (currently) the only mod installed being a Moroso CAI. With regular 87 octane fuel, and using my G-Tech Performance Meter to measure, I pulled a 0-60 MPH time of 6.08. This sounded great to me until I saw, on the following link, that a 93 Z28 6-speed with stock setup has a 0-60 time of 6.3 seconds. Wouldn't the 6-speed have a lot faster 0-60 MPH time than an automatic, even though I have a CAI? What I guess I'm asking is, Do you think my G-Tech Meter is reading wrong somehow?

Here's the link I found the 0-60 MPH time on:

G-Tech is prolly not wrong those things use GPS. 6 seconds sounds about right.

 

6 seconds for an automatic?! Cool! Dang, that website I looked at has some bad data.

 

Ya the new g-tech is supposed to be very accurate. I would think 0-60 times would be better in and auto because they can launch harder...stock anyways.

 

BTW it aint cool to post the same thing on more than one section

 

The stock LT1 0-60 is more like 5.5-5.7 seconds. www.car-stats.com has good 1/4 mile and 0-60 data on a lot of cars, and takes data from magazine articles, not word of mouth. Look up the Camaro Z28 from years 93-97. G-techs do not work on GPS, they use accelerometers, and have had known problems with accuracy, especially trap speeds in the 1/4 mile.

0-60 is almost pointless in my opinion anyways. The 1/4 mile is a MUCH better indicator of real performance. 0-60 is too biased towards how well you get traction off the line, and not the potential of the car.
