Bless Apple for a famous iPhone and Dynolicious for a innovation – portable DYNO APP! Yes, software developer claims it can read your car’s horsepower like a real dynamometer! App uses iPhones G-meter to record acceleration and quite precise calculations. If you’re proud iPhone owner it could be the best $12.99 spent. Just think how much a single dyno run costs!?
Dynolicious is the first automotive performance meter available for the iPhone and iPod Touch.Dynolicious uses the hardware built-in to your iPhone to measure the performance characteristics of your vehicle. No external wires or equipment is necessary, simply slip the iPhone into a cradle or cupholder and go! Some of the performance metrics Dynolicious can measure:
0-60 Acceleration
Other Speed Tests (0-10 MPH through 0-100 MPH in 10 MPH increments)
1/4 Mile Elapsed Time
1/4 Trap Speed
Elapsed Time and Trap Speed for standard intervals (60′, 330′, 1/8 Mile, 1000′)
Lateral G’s (current and peak)
Braking G’s (current and peak)
Horsepower (wheel and/or estimated crank)
Friction Circle (max G’s in 16 directions)
Downloadable Timed Run Graphs
Downloadable Skidpad Graphs
Unlike other accelerometer-based performance meters, Dynolicious uses the advanced data-handling and display capabilities of the iPhone to make the most of your performance testing. Dynolicious maintains a history of test runs, showing you averages and trends in your results. Dynolicious also allows you to enter modifications performed to your vehicle, and will instantly show before-and-after results to easily identify gains or losses.
