I can't get mine below 8 seconds using my Race Technology AP22.  ::)


I bought one of these from Ebay (£40). There was something wrong with mine, and I couldn't get it to record time, speed, and distance properly.

I understand that  "Performance Box" is far superior, and significantly more accurate, too.  It uses GPS instead of old-fashioned accelerometers..... :y

Yep, mine was also cheap from Ebay. Might not be the most accurate box these days but I bought it for back to back comparisons between tweaks of the "other" car, and it is perfect for that.

i know but it was fun thought driving was all about 0 to 60 times.waiting for next track day at santa pod,then comeback with correct times.

I just hope you don't come up against a hairdresser in a 1.8 MX5 ::)
  With a fettle they can upset the big boys even in a straight line let alone on the twisties.....Dry your eyes folks, it's been proven at York...go little MX!!!! 8)

what is this and what does it do,

Increases the compression ratio, as the revs pick up, thus giving you better performance, i.e. accelleration, fuel comsuption etc.

Was that running unleaded, super unleaded or did you add a dash of lepton improver? ;D
