i guess its a start, shrug.

dynolicious/accelerometer'd at 251 horse to the wheels. 7psi

(to me..) it doesnt feel all that fast or powerful

**JLCustomizing** · 2-13-09, 18:22

250 to the wheels is pretty good!!

i think so also.

i dont think i know how to work it yet, in 4 runs i've gotten 200, 220, 232, and 251.

i also got a 18.32 1/4, with a 5 second delay at the beggining. 18.32-5 = 13.32

im thinking that was a mess up, cause thats kinda fast.

Get a real dyno. looked on the site, it sells for 12.99? Get a Gtech if you wanna make a guess

**Chefsp0t** · 2-13-09, 20:52

I agree with King. Those numbers aren't steady enough to really tell you anything.

actually it is supposed to be just as accurate if not as accurate as a Gtech. They use the exact same technology.

either way the fastest 1/4 i could get tonight was 14.68 with a 2.66 60'.

if i bring this car to the drags this spring and it runs over a 14 its going to be sold.

**KING6** · 2-13-09, 22:21

Why is that?

didnt read anything about accuracy or even comparison on the site, looks like just another add on to get you to buy crap for your Iphone/Ipod. Either way I wouldnt even consider as anything but maybe some 10min amusement.
If it was that accurate, I wouldnt be that cheap.

**cf_z** · 2-13-09, 23:49

it is simply a program to let you use what the ipod/iphone already has built into it.

iphones/ipods are not cheap because they have these features (same things that gmeters have, and make them the price they are...) already in them.

im not saying its accurate, just read the reviews.

I didnt know Iphones had accelerometers built in

Even then Gtechs measure indirectly and can be fooled easily both accidentaly and on purpose. I know of a member on this forum that claims his GF's old Celica on cheap allweather tires can hold over lateral 1G on a skid pad.

Upon further questionong he admitted to "tilting" the Gtech slightly to get the #'s but he still claims they are accurate. And hes a fairly prominent member too.

$12.99 is better than the $75 or so I spent on a GTech at least 5 years ago. I think I noticed it in a box somewhere recently, I should pull it out for some S&G fun.

yeah. how accurate is yours?

**N2oKLZE** · 2-14-09, 21:16

i was reading a tuner mag a month or so ago and they were putting that iphone program to the test. the horsepower showed a little higher than it really was, but because of how close it was they said it was a good buy for some fun. it was in one of those "does it really do what it says sections."

**vandejm** · 2-14-09, 23:26

if you got your 60' to a good number you'd be running 13's

14.7 sounds like a ze with boltons time to me....

ive got my 18's with good tires to put on, this was just with crapola winter wheels and tires.

but most ze's can even go better than that i thought...

idk, if i doesnt run better than a 14 it is gonna be sold or parted out. and i will cry.

That thing is literally impossible to get perfectly level. Though, IIRC, it had a thing on it to help you level it so it wouldn't run without being somewhat level. The cord was so tight that when I'd accelerate, it'd pull the GTech slightly off level which threw off the values.

Plus don't forget you guess your vehicle weight. Regardless of when you weighed in at the track "last time" or junkyard or whatever, a pound of gas weighs about 8 pounds so having 3 more gallons than last time will throw your weight higher by 24 pounds.

I don't think I ever got an "accurate" run.
