Seems right. I used the Dynolicious app with my new iPhone. What do you guys think? Is it even the slighest bit accurate? I think so. For sure everything is correct on the second page. (0-60 etc.)

Please, no: "blah blah blah that stupid thing doesn't work blah blah blah" unless you could back it up. I just did this for fun.

 

yours is a 3.0 right? i thought they had more HP. 0-60 looks aight.

this is on an iphone? fuck my chocolate shit.

 

fixed

 

Yeah, it's a 3.0. The 3.0s are rated at 200hp. I guess the intake added another 8hp? Makes sense. I think I could get better times but I honestly NEVER speed so I don't get much practice. This was getting on the highway from the access road at a red light when there was virtually no cars out at night.

 

Apperently this thing is pretty damn accurate!

i had a plug in device like this. it measured hp, g's, 0-60
it would plug in and mount on the winsheild and use a similar technology that the iphone uses to do this. looks like a sweet iphone app, gonna have to get that

 

is it GPS Based?

 

^^no i believe it uses the same sensor the iphone uses to tell when its been tilted to the side to figure out all that stuff through some calculations and other stuff. pretty cool program if you ask me ninja, a real nice find. i know back a few years ago people would have killed for things like that on a phone or otherwise.

 

I used the same program with my car and got seemingly accurate results...I got a better sixty foot time than you LOL 2.x>3.0

 

how exactly does this work? you plug it in somewhere in the car?

:edit: you have T-mobile w/an iPhone? Since when do they offer the iPhone for T-Mobile?

 

it works as an accerometer and the tilt mechanisim is used and mesausres off of g's and shit and i breifly read up on it but its pretty swet im about to buy it on ym firends phone and reaqlly test it cuz i did a dyno test on my boys car and then we are gonna do the phone test see if indeed it is accurate or not

 

not hijacking i promise. they dont offer the iphone for tmobile unless u live in europe. it was "unlocked" to use for GSM carriers.

the iPhone has a built-in LIS302DL, a tiny 3-axis accelerometer. While some people have attempted to use it with the Safari browser (the Tilt game senses changes to the width of the browser page, its basically used as a 1-bit input device), its potential is still somewhat untapped. but apparently these guys figured out a way to use the accelerometer and some advanced math to figure out all the numbers. its called dynolicious.

Dynolicious

 

cracked iPhone. T-Mobile has a sim card as well as at&t.

 

208 hp yeah right

 

I thought that the hp acutally getting to the wheels would be more around 188-190, not 208. Anyone agree?

 

Nah, The program just utilizes the iPhones accelerometer. Just like a G-Tech.

I unlocked, jailbroke, and hacked the iphone to get it to work 100% with T-Mobile. $5.99 internet and everything.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't HP at the wheels and WHP and the crank?

 

I personally wouldn't take its results for much.

G-tech's are about as accurate as well...crap. Only time you'll get anywhere 'near' accurate results with a g-tech are with ideal conditions and perfectly flat pavement. And even then the results are off. And I'm no expert, but I doubt the i-phone's software is gonna do exceptionally better.

 

lol, those #s are dynosuspicious

 

If it reads crank hp then that would sound about right. If it reads whp, then that's WAY off.

 

Yeah, it measures HP not WHP.

 

^ If my car runs by the time of the meet, you'll have to let me borrow your iphone for shits and giggles.

 

That's a sweet app, regardless of accuracy haha, do you think they have anything like that for anything besides an iphone?

 

In the video they do say it measures WHP. I'm not sure how an accelerometer COULD measure HP at the crank, so I'd imagine it's measuring at the wheels.

Cool find though. If only I had an iPod (w/ accelerometer)/iPhone...

 

since its one of teh few phones with a accelerometer and the only one with a decent accelermoter that i know of, teh answer is no. maybe when the technology gets older.

 

208 crank. if you had 208 wheel it would be completely different.
sounds like a cool thing to do.

 

I was wondering that myself. It says HP on the stat part so idk where they came up with WHP..

Haha, sure thing.

BTW, forgot to mention. Before you start doing some runs, you have to calibrate it and set your cars weight with your weight. +1 for weighing 125lbs!

 

i have an iPod 8gb and a 1st gen iPhone 8gb for sale... Both jailbroken running 2.0...

Gotta love when you update to the 3G and have stuff that you never use anymore...

 

Do you think the ipod touch could have something similar? Isn't it basically just an iphone without phonecalls? I just got one with my pro, so if you think i could get that dyno thing, lemme know ninja

 

aiight just kidding i googled it myself, i'm gonna download it when i get home from work!

i'll keep ya posted on my results haha, peace.

 

Yeah. As long as it's got the 2.0 firmware. You buy it from the app store for $13. Worth it imo.

 

Try 150 to the wheels

 

Hmm… oops, got everything mixed up. HP is at the crank and WHP is at the wheels. So I’m guessing it’s detecting whatever the standard is. You can set the drivetrain loss so that would probably put it at WHP.

 

damn u paid 12.99 for that app?

 

ya this is bullshit... I just got my ipod touch like the other day and apparently it doesnt have the 2.0 bullcrap so i downloaded that program and couldnt even install it, i had to pay another 9.99 to get the 2.0... fuck apple (still love my pro though.)

 

This is some really interesting technology, I might have to go and buy myself an iPhone now. I'd like to test this out while I datalog with my laptop to see what type of power gains I get when I advance my ignition timing.

 

hey GhettoNinja06, i know this is off topic but wut program did u use to unlock the 2.0? WinPwn? and also how did u get that screenshot so perfect like that?

 

is this for the iphone 3g???

 

Yup, Winpwn. I used the iClarified guide but found this nice video tutorial for n00bs HERE. Click "more info" and install all the necessary stuff. You will need the Windows 2.0 .NET firmware for XP. If you have Vista then you don't. Hit me up if you need any help.
Works on either iPhone. (1st gen or 3G)

 

Yeah, when the iPhone first came out, I saw it as just a huge slab of touch screen that lacked very basic features. (voice calling, voice recorder, video cam, ringtones, games) But since the new 2.0 firmware came out, it is so much more than just a phone.

Ohh and @Gian, To take a screen shot, hold the home button and press the lock button.

 

www.modmyifone.com

anything you need to know. They also have any firmware that you want along with all jailbreak programs ect...

Nice forum to tell the truth...

A bit off topic, however I Think that I will be buying that app to try it out. Maybe Cydia has something like it for free...

Edit: Cydia has nothing like it.
Now, I'm curious to see what my CLS is pushing with this.

How did you mount it to the car? just put it on the seat i suppose?
