Hey guys,

I decided to use dynolicious on my iPhone for the first time this weekend. Anyway, the launch was VERY light, I wasn't really prepared and didn't want to beat the crap out of the car at launch just yet anyway. I forgot to the take the ESC off and shifting to third the car bogged as I hit the rev limiter. With all those excuses said, the results were pretty good for a first ever try of this software. So here is a look at the results and there will be more to come!

I wasn't 100% sure of the weight of the car either. I set it to 2950lbs with me in the car only and a quarter tank of gas.

I'll give her another run some time this week with an aggressive launch and the ESC off!!

How does that app work? I'd kinda like to check it out myself.

Just like a GTech...uses the accelerometers in the phone.

 

[blkkoup]

Those are some really decent numbers!

Curb Weights for Koups:
2716 lbs for EX Manual
2749 lbs for EX Auto
2859 lbs for SX Manual
2875 lbs for SX Auto

The Sedans are approx. 9 lbs lighter in each trim package. LX identical to EX.

Just add the weight of a tank of gas or fraction of it doing conversion on 13.7 gallons full
13.7 gallons full ~= 92 lbs depends on temps and altitude but a good average.

Just downloaded the app a few minutes ago. Gonna give it a few runs before work. Thanks for the info! I had no idea this app existed.

The chart shows MPH and your stats are KM/H which is it? There's a pretty big difference ya know.

 

[MFury]

You can change it in the app but I guess they are still working on what the graph shows

 

[crock89]

thats so sick i am going to get me an ipod touch just for that

 

[MFury]

I just bought it and am going to go out for a few runs to see what it reports.

Yep, chart is obviously off and needs to be fixed.

Yep, chart is obviously off and needs to be fixed.

Yep, cause 145 mph would be super sweet (obviously)

Yep, chart is obviously off and needs to be fixed.

The graph is shown in MPH, but the box in the top right shows Km/hr
