Does this assume traction loss by FWD single wheel drive and for aerodynamic losses as well?

How about wasted HP due to the energy conversion from mechanical to thermal in various parts of the car, or does it know what the coefficient of friction of the tires to the ground is to account for the wheel hop, or how about the gear ratios of your transmission? Ha I'm just messing, I could keep going though.

..........................

I have a G-tech that pretty much does the same thing except that it uses an accelerometer to gauge wind resistence.

this is very unaccurate though. My friends tC with probably 150whp does not get a 15.8... Our, or his best time was a mid 6second 0-60... Thats about the same as a type-s if not faster... The type is gets a high14/low15, so i mean, that thing sucks. lol but w.e you can't get really accurate ones by entering in only two factors...

I haven't messed around with mine that much. I have just not had place where I could do a 1/4 mile run with it yet.

170 WHP is really easy to achieve
Intake Header Exhaust
Light Weight Crank Pulley to free up some HP
Coilovers to put power down to the wheels
lighter flywheel ( manual transmission )
torque converter ( auto transmission )
and some good tires
OR a simple supercharger with everything bone stock 200 WHP

Does any1 have any dynos of 170 wheel? thats some good numbers then, and i dont think coilovers would add hp on a wheel dyno. Of course a Sc should get you close to 200, but people on my group have been getting around 160 wheel, with bolts on. The fastest NA guy i kno would just be TCPETE on scionlife, and he has new pistons and rods. high compresssion of course, with no tune, hes pulling 200. and a whole bunch of other shiyet.

200WHP has been the limit on the NA street crowd. Waiting on the new cams from Brian Crower. Those bumpsticks should net 20WHP+ easy on a NA setup like this.

Cam shafts or cam gears? Have u guys done research on this? Theres a longass thread, saying cams dont help our cars because we run off timing and not lift like VTEC
