0-60 Acceleration!!

[Marauderjack]

I finally got a Bluetooth adapter that works with my ECU and played around with it this morning before it rained!!:D

First 0-60 MPH romp was a disgusting 6.7 seconds with right much wheel spin!!:(

Found some better asphalt and registered a 5.095 second romp and a 4.874 second one with 0.7G acceleration......pretty impressive for a 4500# Lux-o-barge, huh??!!:beer:

These gismos are pretty neat!!;)

Are you saying the limited-slip clutches aren't in Perfect Condition after 299,999 miles? Impressive nonetheless.

I was thinkin' the same thing but it stayed together for now anyway!!:burnout::D

not bad, you should run the 1/4 mile and get a timeslip! I think mine is 5.x seconds with a 13.8 quarter..

Edit: Actually 5.09 seconds for me using this calc: http://www.sjdsm.com/tech/0_60_calc.htm
using 1/8 timeslip mile data: 8.945 @ 79.57

Using that site my 0-60 time is 1.61 seconds on Purple.

[justbob]

No calculator for DTRs??? It says to fill in the 1/8 mile time (in seconds)

I guess you could always divide by 60?

Share what you found? Thnx! :D

[ledzilla]

I have one of those Bluetooth adapters, as well, with a $5 app for my Droid. Been meaning to try out the 0-60 timing with it, but I don't have a decent enough stretch of open road nearby. I tried it once and got 6.999, but I had let off of the gas early because the light up ahead changed.

[sailsmen]

3.08 using the above.
Another formulae 3.20.

I tried 2 of the cheap ones and neither worked with FORD ECU's!!:mad2:

This one from BAFX works GREAT!!:beer:

0 to 60 in 3.374 seconds looking through my SCT Livelink datalogs and MPH vs. time.

FRICKEN AWESOMENESS:

Using that site my 0-60 time is 1.61 seconds on Purple.

Using the timeslip from my above datalogged run and putting the 1/8 data into that site gives me this though: 2.91

That's probably the same one I got. It's been fantastic for both of my cars.

Mebbe you should ditch the Crapple. Just sayin'. :D

[ledzilla]

Did a 0-60 and quarter mile test with mine the other day. Not every impressed with the results...

0-60: 8.88 seconds
1/4: 15.2 seconds

Kinda bugs me since the last 0-60 I did came out to be 6.99 seconds, and I let off the gas early.

[justbob]

Mines fine!

I had no idea these existed. Needless to say my order is placed. Thanks for the heads up!! :banana2:

Ok, so what does it do? (be nice- legit question, my cars have never "thrown a code")

[SteelQualityMan]

There is a great Bluetooth OBD2 monitor app for Android phones called, appropriately, "Torque". It can display many ECU parameters on a real-time basis and does a lot more depending on the installed extensions.

Go to the amazon link and scroll down to the product description.

I just want it for 0-60 and 1/4 times.

[Marauderjack]

Here's what I presently use!!

Wow.... Even better than I thought. There's an app for everything!

[SteelQualityMan]

Get Torque Pro. I've been using it since it was introduced and I recommend it 5.0. I have an OBD2 device in both cars and a profile for each car set up in Torque. My supercharged CV came to me with a mis-calibrated speedometer and no tach. I 《always》 have Torque up and running in that car.
