I did, my car makes 380ish bhp on my dyno dynamics dyno. It makes almost 600 on the phone app. Infact I can get over 1000bhp by holding the phone in my hand and swinging it around.

Pointless app tbh.

However there are some great HUD apps available for free on appstore  :happy2:

The Decibel meter app is handy if your thinking of doing track days  :happy2:

Which one? Just had a look and a fair few available. How do you know if it's accurate though?

I cant remember which one I had on there tbh mate  :ashamed:, accidentally deleted it (along with about 30 others) a few weeks back.

It was accurate to within 1.5db as we checked the bike against the sticker put on the bike by the scrutineers, theirs said 96, iphone said 97 (But then I think we were a littrle closer as we were timing him on the line.

I remember on the screen it had black numbers on a red screen i think and you could also slow it down to easily spot peak numbers, hope that helps
