I don't have that information and unfortunately, the car's owner is not here for us to go try it out.

Best percentage gain in the powerband is around 3k rpms where its making %30 more power, that is definitely noticeable. Combined with the power pedal it is way more responsive and winds up quicker. Lots of smiles

I can't speak for Vivid's unit, but the likes of Rebellion and RENNtech are seeing 0.3-0.4 secs off the 0-60 (mid to high 3's) and 0.5-0.6 secs/3-4mph (12.0/12.1 @ 114/5mph) on the 1/4 mile results over stock.
Given that most of these units produce similar gains, I would expect this unit to be similar.

Are these actual drag strip runs or gtech runs?

It should work because of the same engine and ECU. If you are interested PM me and we can work out a special deal for you to test it on your car.
