Pocket Dyno

Any one got this on their iphone.Had it on for over a year now and not tried it out.It is meant to measure 0-60 bhp and loads more.You have to load a bit of info in phone first like cars weight etc,to get best results.And the iphone must b steady and fixed down.That might be a bit tricky.Any way will try it out soon and share results. http://www.pocketdyno.com/

Not too bad for a $12.99 application.

Presumably that's just someone who's copied Dynolicious?

Yes but that's their own testing!!! What you will actually get in real life may well be different....

With inbuilt GPS and a reasonably accurate timer it's not rocket science to produce something that can do that.

The actual figures may not be 100% accurate (then again, are rolling roads, there's that much variation!) but it's very useful for like-for-like comparisons when making modifications. e.g. put a chav exhaust on and see how much power you lose.

Does it want the car weight in kg or lbs? That could be a factor of 2.2 to start off with
