Anyone ever play with Torque app!

I use torque along with adv addin for getting oil temp, here's an example of it being used

370z Quarter mile 12.841 at 108mph: http://youtu.be/H-5aqyEaXIM

Btw: the 0-60 seems pretty close but the 1/4 mile compared to slip seems off by about .3 to .6 all the time. 10mhz and 5mhz gps settings tried.

It sort of makes sense that the quarter mile times would be off by more (in a relative sense). Speed is probably reasonably accurate; a car needs to sense speed reasonably well. Distance is probably not bad at the scale of a mile, but I think there is probably several car lengths worth of error in what the car measures to be a quarter mile. Now, if distance comes from GPS, then I would expect even more error.

This is just guessing, but it seems intuitively satisfying (which is what really matters at the end of the day).

wow ...good stuff ...good stuff. Now your car does 12.8 at the track ...what did the torque app read? best I've got using that app was 13.8 and I just did that like 30 mind ago

i only did a couple compares but i ran a 13.1 and torque reported 13.7

another was high 12.9 torque reported 13.6

once it was that far apart i stopped using torque for qtr mile except to record.

im testing an app now PerfExpert, like 12 bucks on android and it seems very accurate on the 0-60 so far, consisten 4.5s mostly. cant compare qtr mile yet, and it'll measure flywheel horsepower ehich to keep my speed down i tried 2nd, reported 389bhp which is probably close. gonna try a third gear pull to see but 5his perfexpert app is intriguing if you 12 bucks to blow on playing around. its calibration it does on your accelerometer is damn precise. wow. long message.

point, your probably much faster than what torque is showing.

That's what I'm saying I feel like it quicker then torque is saying. I mean it's just fun app...but man it gets me going lol

Even if the software is really good at calibration and math and realtime issues, and even if your particular model of phone has a very accurate accelerometer... usually just the mounting of the phone is going to cause a lot of error. Unless you've made some kind of custom mount that bolts your phone to some hard metal on the car without any weasle-y joints like most phone mounts have.

Do you know if it can read timing? Be handy for my jeep when I do my sycronizer

It does for the 370

How do you got about it?

Choos new dial

thumb through all the available PID

choose the timing advance PID

How does this app compare to dash command, if anyone has tried that one as well?

Dashcommand is my favorite iOS OBDII app; I use it pretty regularly with an Elm327 wifi.
