Anyone has/tried out this app? the reviews of its accuracy is pretty good and fun but ofcourse not perfect, took it for a test and here's my result, empty tank, no ac, no passenger, windows closed, about 60f outside temp, the HP seens to be off, I input the OEM weight: 2290lb, the manual says to get an accurate WHP the car weight+fuel+crew+cargo need to be inputed accurate as well, just did a few runs up to 67mph on a local road, but it can record time til 1/4 mile.

you have to take into account the weight of your fuel, engine oil, coolant, windshield washer fluid, etc...

manufacturer's curb weight is typically only for the mechanical components of the vehicle with no fluids. the only way to get it really accurate would be to weigh the car with you in it and with the same amount of fluids you'll be doing the run with. that would explain the high number, you undershot the weight ;)

I think he means that it's low: he's got a supercharger, CAI, larger throttle body, etc. Should be closer to 135 whp?

Yes , it is kinda under reading for me i think, if you incresed the weight you ll get a higher whp result, i dont know mines actual weight anymore since it's gutted+ misc weights
