Dyno APP Fun

So my son says..."Dad, Check this out, Its an app from my IPhone that will do a Dyno on your car".

I figured what the heck....Tell me what to do. I could'nt push it to the max for the entire quarter mile due to traffic, but here are the results.

Reminds me of the G-tech pro. Now smartphones do EVERYTHING. I believe there is a program so you can data log and read OBD codes too.

What would be neat is if you ever took your car to the track keep the phone inside so we can see how close the results are.

Peak HP is about right. I wonder if it would have different results if you stayed in it longer. I might have to download that app on my wife's IPhone and check it out.

Cool! How did you do that? Do you hook the phone to the car?

320HP ... that's 18 more than stock. Did you do any mods?

I do think if I kept at it for the entire quarter mile the results would improve.

The APP is called Dynolicious....you just set the iPhone in a secure place in the car and follow the instructions.

And....no Mods.
