While I don't have an iPhone (no AT&T service at my house. "All the bars in all the places"....BS) this looks like a really nice inexpensive and convenient app. Less than a round for Bony and Mike! :wink

This from their web site -

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
* 1/4 Mile Elapsed Time
* Lateral G's
* Horsepower
* Friction Circle
* Downloadable Timed Run Graphs
* Downloadable Skidpad Graphs

Dynolicious earns a spot in Apple's iTunes best of 2008

December 3, 2008

Today Apple announced the best 2008 iTunes titles and Dynolicious earned a spot in the list. We want to thank all of our users for making Dynolious a success.

PS: I have no Apple or iTunes affiliation.
 
I have downloaded this to my Ipod touch and will install it in my Iphone when I get that tomorrow.

It is a pretty neat program and seems to work well. Garage419 did a little story about it and they found that the data was accurate. The biggest problem with this program is keeping the phone or Ipod steady. Any movement is calculated and excessive movement will throw off the reading. For example I did a run in my truck and accidentally let the Ipod slip. When I finished the run it told me I had 1,000 HP...Not bad for an 07 Tundra that comes from the factory with 381 at the flywheel!
 
I've still yet to try it but it definitely proves the superiority of the iPhone as a mobile device. :biggrin
 
I have heard mixed reviews...curious to see what you guys think.
