I averaged around the 8s mark over half a dozen runs. Happy with that result.

Weather plays a role, temps went from 8C to 20C in a week and my 3-8K got 0.3s slower as a result. 7.7 to 8.0 :|

Well I finally had a go at this today

Arthur test; 3k - 8k

1st run; 6.3 sec

2nd run; 5.6 sec

1/2 tank Momentum 99 RON

130 Mtrs ASL

Ambient. 16.5 deg C

Right leg still shaking!

If I am going to video this, then one things for sure I won't be holding the device!

I need to lay down

That's a very large margin of error in your measuring apparently :)

I don't find it hard to hold my smartphone in my hand to record whilst also having the same hand on the steering wheel. No shifting required and it's only up to 100 mph anyway not 200...

We drive on roads not fields, holding any a device is stupid, I will get someone to video so you can get a good night sleep

No need to go out of your way for it really, I just don't feel having 2 hands and 8 fingers on the wheel is any different than with all 10. In fact I think it's safer than manually timing anything because there is no need to look at the dash, just keep your eyes on the road. Besides, whichever hand you are using for pressing buttons for timing is also not on the wheel I'm guessing?

You need a straight camera view onto the gauges, too...

Here's a vid of sar's car with the JHM stage 1 SC doing 6.2s



Not bad considering it's what, half the price of a TTS.

Well here we go;

Firstly I would prefer to look at the dash so I know what my car and engines doing and when it hits 3k/8k I can press the timer with my thumb and keep my hands on the wheel

As it was my first couple of attempts I am sure there are better times to come, you'll be the first to know

Thanks for the diving advice

As regards JHM verses TTS;

Firstly with JHM I think waiting over a 1 month for a reply for enquiry is unacceptable, then replying and not answering any of the questions is a Joke

Secondly the TTS it is engineered to fit the said car, not butchered like the JHM where parts of the chassis, bumper, fog light housing, AC pipes, front grill, wiring loom etc

The JHM recycles the hot air from the engine compartment

The JHM is a self install (80+ pages) (labour free - yea if you do it yourself) ask Ed China!

Mapping over the Internet? Hope it better than the communication

TTS;

Manufactured, Engineered and installed in the UK,

Looks better

Paid in £'s

Totally happy with the price

Any questions or problems I can call in or ring up and get answers

Ps I did my home work on SC's
