Officially, it's 8 seconds. Unofficially, in stock it's probably around 7-7.2secs.

Even with my pretty basic mods, I've had 6.4 out of it (on a G-TECH).

My only mods are a breast plate and a TRD short shifter, I got 6.93seconds 0-60 with a gtech on my first and only attempt.

I'd say around 7 seconds is about right.

a performance meter, it'll tell you things like 0-60's, 60-0's, BHP and g-forces

Mine took about 5 mins, once I'd got some decent sticky pads to mount it on the dash. It does come with a suction cup kit to put it on the windscreen, but I wanted it out of my line of vision; plus it's easier to fiddle with the buttons that way.

It just plugs into the cigar lighter, but you could hard wire it in, too.
