I did 5.1 seconds with my new Dashhawk. If I were a better driver I might lower that a little.(After all I am 72. Reflexes aren't what they used to be) Maybe after I get the GMPP Stage II installed Friday I can lower it. I will post Pictures of before and after Stage II times.

Awsome, DickW! You sure got me beat. I could never get a 5.1 at the track. I was close though, but I forgot to lower the amount of gas and I was hanging a little heavy. Oh, I looked on the list for the National in Denver and didn't see you listed. Hope you can make it up there. Would love to hang with you in the Mountains. Gosh, we have made several Meets together. Congrats on your time Dick.

4.7 with a DDM stage II supercharger, haven't tried stage III yet.

That was the best of four tries. The others were 5.2-5.4. Not going to Denver Ron. Too far.

I have not made it there yet so far it's taken me 54 years.

I did a 4.4 long time back, but wheel spin can mess up the numbers. Did a 3.2 once and moved about 10 feet, car spun the tires all the way thru second gear. Dashawk will get you a ball park number but as you can see there are ways to fool it, I did not do them intentionally. It does not measure distance just the read out from the speedo.

Good run, once you get the GMPP, your time will increase. With the westers tune, we can't hook up on the street to get a good time. I'm going to race this weekend so I"ll have some news on Westers 5.2

Dick, if you get the GMPP Tune it should drop way down!

Joe, can't wait to hear what your car does with the new upgrade. That will be fun!

Yeah I don't think I would totally trust Dashhawk. I have seen some people say they are getting 4.2 0-60 times with there dashdawk and the BSR tune which is I highly doubt because a 0-60 4.2 would translate into a 12.4second 1/4 mile which no one has been able to do on a stock turbo. Only things I would trust for 0-60 times would be the actual track or the iphone app dynolicious because the iphone actually starts when your car moves and calculates it like that.

So far my best 0-60 is 5.1 with a so so launch with the Dynolicious app. It said my 60 foot time was 2.4 seconds and from what I gathered your 60 foot should be about 2.0seconds flat for a great launch so if I can launch good I can get my 0-60 to 4.7. I have the GMPP tune.

My Passport GT2 Timer also works off when the car actually moves. I have to be stopped, press the reset button and wait for it to say READY, then launch. So far it's corresponded perfectly to my track time slips along with my cousins.

Sounds like there is no reason for me to get a Dynolicious App for my iPod if it's doing the same thing but the Dashhawk seems to have some nice features.

As far as the 12.4 second 1/4 mile, it depends on a lot of different things but the gearing in my auto seems to peter out in 4th. I think the torque curve has to be a lot stronger and longer with the Westers than the BSR so that, along with a manual trans should make Joe's track times awesome!!

Filipp · « **Reply #10 on:** May 28, 2009, 04:29:46 PM »

This is what I got after 3 runs with the Dynolicious

Weight: 3300
Drivetrain Loss: 18%
Launch 2000-2500rpm.

0-60 5.12
60' 2.33 @30.2
330' 5.92 @64.9
1/8 8.82 @82.5
Peak Horsepower 300

I wasn't able to go over 80 or so so I wasn't able to hit 1/4 times. This was done with an Automatic GXP with GMPP Tune / GMPP CAI. I set the weight at 3300 because I was factoring in the driver, gas in tank, stuff in my trunk. Weight only plays a roll in the horsepower anyways and the times would be what the iphone would have recorded regardless of weight. I started the runs pulling off a curb onto the main street so it wasn't 100percent straight which probably hindered my time a bit. But I need to work on launches and find the sweet spot between 2k-2.5k. I need to find a longer street lol.

Yeah the Passport GT2 should work similar to the Dynolicious. You don't have to buy Dynolicious though if you just jailbreak your iphone / itouch and you can download all the apps you want for free. But just as lil goat said I wouldn't trust dashhawk 100percent since the numbers from it seem to be off where as the Passport GT2 your talking about / Iphone use the gps / accelerometer functions to actually tell how fast the car is going at certain times and won't be confused by wheel spin like the dashhawk.

5.3 for me via dynolicious. I suck at shifting

Make sure you turn traction control off by pressing the button once, it improved my time by like 0.3. Im a bit scared to turn everything off or to put it into competition mode though lol.

blah, what the heck is Westers 5.2 ???
Is that the tune that goes along with the GMPP sensors ??

Or can i request the 5.2 for my car right now from westers? ( dont have gmpp kit installed yet )

gmf104 · « **Reply #14 on:** June 09, 2009, 04:07:01 PM »

My best 0-60 is 4.5 on a passport g timer. My best 60 ft. 1.85. Both with drag radials and BSR tune.

chuckdoc · « **Reply #15 on:** June 09, 2009, 07:51:12 PM »

Westers 5.2 is a system that Joe made up but Lyndons laughingly accepts. It is not the tune for the GM sensors. Joe calls that tune 7.2 (I think). Where Joe gets these numbers from is a Gypsy who lives several blocks away and utilizes a chicken and some goat hair to advise Joe.

Dynolicious...... and won't be confused by wheel spin like the dashhawk.

I'm gonna have to pay a few bucks and compare Dynolicious to my Dashhawk head to head......hard to see how wheel spin would change your 0-60 times on a dashhawk unless you spun your tires when shifting to third.

Dynolicious does look like a sweet app! Now somebody needs to make a WiFi OBDII plug that plugs into your car, and then gives an iPod Touch or iPhone full Dashhawk capabilities..........oopps there is something like that it's called Rev http://www.devtoaster.com/products/rev/

I might have to get that, but the OBDII-WiFi hardware isn't cheap.......so I'll stick with my dashhawk for now.....

With my 7400 rev limit I can do a 0-60, spinning 1st and 2nd to the limiter, move maybe 5-10 feet. Takes a little over 3 seconds. So yeah tire spin can have an effect. Tire roll over (where the tire is just barely moving faster than the car) on the other hand is okay.

Excelsior · « **Reply #18 on:** June 10, 2009, 02:59:40 PM »

yeah, iRev looks cool. But $170 for a cord alone + $50 purchase price is up there.

Well I know that CAN happen, but is that gonna happen in any type of normal 0-60 run?

Cheaper than a Dashhawk.....and I already own one of those. The "Cord" is really cordless, WiFi. Would be nice to see how iRev works on a Sol and compares with the Dashhawk.
