Default Dyno with your iPhone

This is no doubt old news, but have any of you guys seen this app for the iPhone?

http://www.cnet.com.au/cartech/acces...pt_dynolicious

Will give elapsed times, acceleration, and power reading on road

For $14.99 it seems a bargain, and has had good reviews.

Pity I don't have an iPhone!!

There is a free application that does much the same thing but slightly different called "Rev Lite". Look it up in iTunes, its genius!

I've got that program Steve. Works alright, but it's a bit of a bugger to calibrate and use each time. Trying to drive like you stole it and work a touch screen phone at the same time probably isn't the best idea!! I got my mate to hold it steady while I tested it out, and it gave half decent results. Definitely worth the $15, even if it's just for the novelty of it!

Im assuming you need to fork out $700+ on a I-phone first..... G-Techs are a tad cheaper!!

There is one just called "PocketDyno".

Its a free app, so not sure how accurate etc it is.
