First time I've done this using the SCT Livewire. After only a few 0-60 runs I managed to get from 7.15 to 6.035 sec. (done with 1/2 tank gas & tools and spare in trunk)

I think I need more practice, but I find that I do much better by not putting the acc. through the floorboard, but taking it to about 75%-80% and quickly squashing it the rest of the way once the engine spools up.

Is the Livewire considered accurate for this test? (their HP/TQ tests give stupid results) I think I can break into the 5's with a little more trial and error - I'm going to install UD's and maybe go cool on the plugs and thermostat (Girlfriend pings easily).

Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

I found the live wire to be very inconsistant and produce totally unreal numbers...it is only good as a flash device and pid monitor

Yeah, well with "instant" HP of 750+ and TQ of 1200+ I guess I should just stop modding the beast. :D The 0-60 seems more accurate - it seems to basically act as a stopwatch which terminates when you hit 60, I guess it's all I have to go with for now.
