Hey,
so, stumbled upon Dynolicious one day while browsing, decided to install it on my iPod touch and give it a try.
This afternoon I found myself a nice strech of asphalt, about half km long, flat & straight, and decided it was time to give it a go.
My car is a standard is200 except for a kazama backbox and a camcon.
As you might know, basically the only info you have to provide to the software is the weight of the car- I figured 1570 kgs could be a good estimate for my electric leather seat, non-nav IS, with me weightin little over 70 kgs.
Transmission loss was left to 0%, which should return the estimated wheel-HP.
Did 3 run - first 2 with camcon off, third one was on.
Mind you, I'm not really an expert in launching a car, as yo u can tell from the 0-100km time, in fact on the 2nd run I did a little bit better.
Not too much of a surprise to find out that the camcon does no good at all to my car, at least with the current settings I have. But I have to admit I'm pretty excited about this little piece of software. It seems result are pretty repeatable, therefore tuning my camcon or adding some tuning part (an exhaust manifold maybe? or a supercharger?) should show me exactly what has been gained or lost.
Here below you can find the data provided by the software, first run first:

^^^this last is the one with the camcon turned on.....
I wonder if anyone else has tried this software with their car, and what is your thoughts on it.
All data coming out on my ipod seems to make sense to me, 125 HP at the wheels sounds about right for this car (a standard car) and to think it does it just through the accellerometer it amazes me!
Here also some dyno chart, second run
and last run, with Camcon on...
All in all, well pleased with this app, much less with the camcon
sorry for the longest post ever,
cheers.
