PerfExpert - Car Onboard Dyno & Timer allows you to measure the performances of your car, such as its real power, torque, and acceleration times. It doesn’t require any connection to your car. Results are provided as detailed reports featuring interactive charts.

How does PerfExpert Dyno works ? It's simple :
1. Create your car profile => Describe your vehicle's specifications, including curb weight, tire sizes, and engine displacement. If you're unsure about these details, we'll guide you through the process.
2. Mount your phone in your car => No need for complicated connections. Simply secure your phone in the car, and PerfExpert will utilize its internal sensors to measure accurate acceleration.
3. Accelerate through the entire engine rev range => Choose a flat, straight, and horizontal road. Accelerate from low revs to the maximum revs while maintaining the same gear. It's that simple!

IMPORTANT : dyno test is not compatible with automatic gearboxes that doesn't have a manual mode.

With such a tool, you can check the efficiency of your various tunings, ECU mapping, chiptuning, and even your chassis settings.

Using the specification of the tested car and your device’s accelerometer, the application runs our algorithms and dynamic power loss calculations to provide the performances of your car with high accuracy.

- Compute corrected power and torque using the correction norm of your choice (atmospheric pressure, ambient temperature and air humidity are taken into account). Available standards: DIN (Europe), SAE (America), JIS (Japan), CEE (Europe) and ISO (International).

- Timed Run test to measure your 0-60mph, 0-60ft, 0-1/8mi, 0-1/4mi, 0-100km/h, 0-20m, 0-200m, 0-400m, and much more.

- Use of your phone accelerometer at its maximum frequency and advanced signal processing for smoothed curves.

- Custom choice of units from a large choice: Hp, Ch, Cv, Kw, Nm, Ft.Lb, mKg, Mph, Km/h, m, ft, G, m/s², psi, inHg, mBar, °C, °F

- Export reports in Tab Separated Value format, PNG and as a web link on the PerfExpert Network

- Compatible with most tablets (Galaxy Tab, Nexus...) and high-resolution screen phone (Galaxy, Redmi Note, Pixel, Nexus...)

Ratings and reviews

It's simple. Calibration may take couple tries if you do it wrong. I guess calibration pictures in the app could benefit from written words what's up and down, front and back. One of the pictures can be a bit of a guess. After that? You put the data, ACCURATELY. Stop the car, have the phone secure at acceptable position. Which is easiest thing in the world to do. You get green light, you drive. And results shown are very accurate, I've tested it on plenty of cars. Great app.

Tried several times and just can't get it to complete a session. There's allot of good features, and it should be quite accurate, but with the calibration taking a good 4 or 5 tries to complete, and the barrage of steps you have to go through before you can start a logging run (most of which can and should be automated) When you finally get to test it. You get successive error messages, phone in bad position, or phone at wrong angle, or travels distance less than 18m I've tried several times in multiple positions, and watched all the tutorials, but it's just too temperamental. It could be so good, but with the gauge error messages you get, I don't know how it wants to be positioned or what's wrong. Of a good 6 or 7 times testing on the asphalt, I've had 0 success in even getting it complete 1 run. It could be good, but it is just too temperamental, and too long winded to use.

This app is pretty cool. For the several 1 star ratings or all the ratings that say this app does not work and the calibration does not work, you simply aren't doing it right; user error, as the developer keeps saying. I did the calibration of my phone sensors once, put in all my car's parameters according to Autombile Catalog, and did one dyno test. That first test seemed pretty accurate. My car is rated for 265 HP stock and it read about 281 HP, which makes sense given the mods I have done.
