we should make a thread with all cars that run 4.8 0-60

example:
'08 charger srt8 ........425hp 420tq 4160lbs. 4.8 0-60 +119hp +143tq +630lbs.
'07 ford shelby gt500..500hp 480tq 3920lbs. 4.9 0-60 +194hp +203tq +395lbs.
'07 aston martin db9..450hp 420tq 3881lbs. 4.9 0-60 +144hp +143tq +326lbs.(v12)

good idea. you should start it and post the link here.

the 335i
the evos and sti's
not a big list.

thanks

10 seconds. you just need to plug it on to your lighter plug, turn the car on. park on a flat surface and hit the Calibrate button and you are ready to go.

then when you want to do 0-60 or 1/4 mile or whatever. go to a flat road, and hit the big yellow button and go.

Nice. Almost as fast as a stock 335i.

That's the gear limiter display, not the current gear. (current gear is one of the displays you can cycle through by pushing the DISP button) He obviously flipped it over to "S" mode but didn't use the paddles.
