from what i have read they give you a pretty accurate ET (with in 2 thenths) but the mph i think will read a little high but nothing crazy. I dont know how accurate the hp and tq. measurements are on it though.

i have one and i love it. i use the hell out of it.

it isn't all that acurate but it is very consistant. once you goto the track with one you can get a "correction" factor and use that to figure out your actual et. mine reads .15 fast. my 60' time has never been more than .01 off from a timeslip. mph is about 4 high.

whats so great about it is the consistancy. you can go out and practice your launchs or work on your tune and really dial things in.
