I did my first GTech run.

According to the GTech my 1/4 time was a 14.52 @ 102mph. The MPH sounds way too high, but the time sounds about right. For weight I used 3810.

Weight input is not required for acceleration measurements, is it? I thought weight was only required for HP measurements...

1/4 mile speeds are a always little higher than the track due to the way it measures it. Here's what their site says ( http://www.gtechpro.com/faq.html ):

"Why is my G-TECH/Pro consistently 2-3 mph above the track?
G-TECH/Pro is a very accurate machine, and the trap speed result that you get from the G-TECH/Pro is actually more accurate than the racetrack. Reason is that the racetrack averages your speed over a 60 feet stretch between two beams and G-TECH/Pro measures your speed at the exact 1/4 mile point."

Even so, your MPH is quick! The best I've recorded is around 95-96 MPH (stock). Your mods seem to be working just fine.
