Performance Gauges For Your iPhone or iTouch

05_dynolicious_optAre you one of those people who is pathetically addicted to new software and hardware from the world’s manufacturers? Then I’m sure you already have an i-Phone or two and are already getting bored of it because of its virtual limits, well here’s something to liven up for i-Phone life again, a performance meter called Dynolicious from BunsenTech.

It uses the accelerometer inside the iPhone to let you record 0-10 through 0-100 times, quarter mile and trap speed, Lateral Gs, horsepower and more. Results are also displayed in real-time on the phone itself with graphs and a speedometer. You can also configure the tool with updates to your car, weight, before and after performance measurements, and keep a complete history of all your runs.

The cool thing is that you don’t even have to plug in your iPhone anywhere, just set it in the cup holder and drive. The folks at Dynolicious promise 0-100 accuracy to within .08 seconds and a quarter mile speed to within 2.5km/h. The performance meter software should also work with the iPod Touch.

The Dynolicious software is now available at iTunes for US$12.99, a rather small price to pay compared to all the Defi meters or whatever it is that people use these days.
