Default What gives

What are the 0-60 times for stock 05-09 automatic gt's. I know the manual can do 5.2sec. I did a 0-60 run using my scanguage II and it said 6.8 The only mods mods to my car are 4.10s.

It should be about 13.7'ish in the quarter mile.

Just saw the 4.10's and can't edit from my phone. I change my quarter mile estimate to 13.3, maybe 13.4.

The automatic should run 0-60 in about the same time as the standard. I dug out the November 2004 issue of Motor Trend. They went 0-60 with a 2005 automatic in 5.1 seconds. Usually the magazines test the standard transmissions. I've seen times from 4.9 to 5.6. Your time seems way off from where it should be, unless the lower (higher numerical) gears are shifting to a higher transmission gear to reach 60 compared to stock rear end gears.

Gotta learn to launch like a pro if you want those rock bottom 60' times.

I don't know what a scan gauge 2 is, but i'm sure it's not very accurate. You'd be better off mounting a camera above your speedometer. Any wheel spin is going to throw it way off.

im thinking its either the 4.10s or I didnt hit it hard enough. When I launched I didnt even spin the tires lol. 5.1 thats just as fast as the manual that c/d got. Time for another run then.
