My G-tech 1/4 mile time sounds wrong

Ok. My buddy has a G-tech. Its pretty neat, and it pretty much matched what he ran at the track with his timeslip(.03 secs off). He timed his run with the g-tech while running at the strip. I have light mods to my car (cold air intake, catback exhaust, blow off valve, and manual boost controller). This thing told me that I ran a 13.64 1/4 mile and a 0-60mph in 4.69 seconds?!?! Thats almost STI territory!! This can't be right, or is it?

if its a cool damp day, and your runing enough boost, I dont see why the 0-60 couldnt be that low, I raced a Ducati downhill and was neck to neck with him all the way to 140mph before he got scared and let back on the speed... being that we were approaching a stop light I thought I might want to start braking
it was right after a rain storm in winter with about 55 degree weather. so my car was runing fast that day :P needless to say the next stoplight I talked to him and he was flipping out asking what the hell I did to the car to make it so fast.... and well I Told him it was stock :P and hes like WTF. I know what im test driving monday... True story

I live in the northeast. It was at night. Very cold, probably about 40 degrees. 15 psi of boost. The car felt quick, but actually it has felt quicker at other times. Maybe it was the temp, cause now that it is warmer (60 - 70 degrees) it feels much slower that it was in the winter.

After hearing that story I would have to say that with a cold day, the time could most definately be right
