N/A cars you cant, if you do them as hard as a turbo falcon the N/A car struggles to give repeatble figures, aslong as the car is left as it stands from first run to finished run after tuning u know you have gained X amount of power.As for comment on MPH as a power indicator like I said it can be a very accurate guide with a car that's doing consistant repeatable times and 60 fts and you can follow the stats all the way down the track to see what its doing. When u see a car change in mph as much as 5 over a handful of different runs it just shows how easily little driver changes can affect what the outcome will be. Street cars just arent drag cars, they make all the calculations that much harder. Sorry if I mistook your comment,.I think the info we have been throwing around is good for people to understand anyway. Thanks mateSimon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
