    I know this probably the wrong section for this but..if anybody is using the torque app and bluetooth adapter how accurate is it? I just went for a little blast and first hp number i got was 226 @3835 rpm. Second time was 262 @4862. I aint got nothin but a hv2, intake,and magnaflows that i know of. Figure something gotta be off wit this

    i haven't even entertained the thought of using those parts of the app.

    was more concerned about the live data.

    ^^^ this ^^^

    HP calc is just doing it by what you enter... Not worth it in my opinion. But the live data is same that OBDII receives, and is acurate.

    Hp wouldn't be something I would depend on torque to tell me. Want to know your hp.. Take it to the dyno.

    Likely not accurate at all.

    Pretty much those numbers are just guesses on calculated hp and torque for the computer, it can use those to determine other random things for say fuel, spark, engine/tran tq mngt and for traction control.


    Shoot my calc delivered trans torque is well over 320 ft lbs at times on my hp tuners, but I likely put down 60 less real wheel torque.

    i knew the 262 was a totally wrong number. i may have gone with the 220, but still a stretch. i just needed something to turn off codes before emissions in a couple weeks. Waiting on my aeroforce to come back from being repaired.

    On launches without wheel spun I would normally see like 185 - 195 ish hp at the wheels using torque. I figured its probably somewhere in there considering 240 factory rating minus roughly 20% drivetrain. But I don't swear by those numbers =P
