Only used it a handful of times, but seems off. Even have same exact lap times but am off on avg. speed in those by sometimes as much as 9 mph. Will grabbing the cradle, gps helper, improve things that much?

Mine was within a tenth of a second 95+% of the time (compared to official timing) when stashed in my glovebox. Therefore clear line of sight to GPS satellites is not required. This is with an iPhone 4s.
However, I take anything outside of the lap times with a grain of salt (e.g., mid-corner speed, etc.).
