Dyno app in an iPhone!

Hey Guys,

Have you seen this?
How 'bout a dyno in your pocket, or rather in your iPhone?

I bought it for mine. $12, it was worth a shot. Told me I had 439 whp. riiiight.


I'll mess with it later to see if I can get better accuracy.

from what i have heard the if the weight of your car is not correct then the read yous will also be wrong. So make sure your weight is correct and go from there

My dad bought a dash dyno scan tool mainly purchased to read trouble codes but it does have a dyno and other fun little features like 1/4 mile times. But what I am trying to say is that you need to get everything set-up correctly before you do this otherwise you will get some ridiculous numbers. So what mine has on it for set-up is gear ratio (wheel size, tire size, then it tells you to put it in gear and drive it above 3k rpm for a little while to get the ratio of the gears) and then it has the usual weight option.

But if you get all of this in there correctly it will give you the right numbers and if not then its messed up.

I hope this iphone app works though that would seriously be really cool to have.

Garage419 tested it against the G-Tech and found it reasonably accurate.

Supposedly the guy that designed the G-Tech has a rebuttal out there but I'm having a hard time finding it.
