Did you seriously pull a 2.8 60ft? How can you be the host of a car show when you drive worst than a grandma in a damn Geo Metro? I know its FWD but really? Maybe a 2.3 or 2.4 on a BAD run but I have never seen any car perform THAT badly. Your objective was to show how bad the G-Tech is but all you showed us is your lack of talent and an embarrassment to all car fans. Congrats Douche
I love the program, but as I have learned, the track won't let you have your phone in car at all or anything hanging from the window during a race, which sadly makes this a street ONLY program. I still am glad I bought it though. I dyno'd my on at 166hp and it was exactly on. It says my Mazda 6S makes 220 at the wheels, so I will find out on the 2nd when I go dyno it if I was close.
G-tech is very accurate and can show the curve of power and torque and that iPhone doesnt. It also can measure 1/1000 of G, but not sure how accurate is G-meters in iPhone.
And in the video they had wrong installed it, of course it was inaccurate! He cant point it with display towards the eyes of driver.
make sense to me! a few runs should have been made to eliminate any bad runs or slip up's with the G-Tech or the App but i think the App is better as well. just my opinion
Ummm, at the end you say a $150 gtech compared to a $13 app..... I think your forgeting the fact that you actually have to buy the IPhone..... Or are i phones free in america??? So here i would be looking at over $900 for the iphone version..... and i bought my gtech brand new for $80....... hmmmmm, think ill stick with the 1/10th price gtech thanks.
this fat guy is a joke ..i have a gtech and an i phone and the gtech ss is on pint,and if u are a retard like this guy cant even mount it on the window,ur not goin to get a good result..
Great video!!! brother I'm From brasil, and a would like to buy a Ipod end install dynolirious, but a have a question, It have to be a IPOD Touch Screen, but this works in all versions, or generations of Ipods or have to be one with W-fi or a generation in special???
Plese halp me...and if see my moves if you like old cars...a hav a Puma GTE 1977, a brasilian car that have been exported from younited states!!
Wait tou understand everyfing my inglish is poor!!!
I don't have either, but I gave this vid 1 star because I just don't like the obnoxious gorillas attitude. He blatantly admits he can't mount the G-tech or use it properly, what a a fricken caveman. He should spend less time making his beard look stupid and more time reading the fucking instructions.
This is the kind of guy that straps a deer head to his old ass truck, believe a cordless drill is a vibrator, and tosses his shorts in his trunk to air out. Dumbass!
I can't believe you posted a time slip with a 2.8 60 ft. You're the host of a car talk show and you pulled a 2.8 60 ft. I've seen 4 banger toyota trucks do better than that.
@903aaron903 Well if you listen to what they say about the G-tech " it fell of the windscreen a couple of times " that is plural as in multiple wich might suggest they did more then one run. And further more i have the dynolicious app and it works gr8 i have tried it on my golf r32 my brothers GTI and my friends KTM Superduke ( so yeah works on bikes too ).
@903aaron903 He blatantly says" we did a few runs, here's the results." at 4:09 so, that means they did more than one. I'm not saying the app is completely accurate, but that is pretty cool for people that can spend $13 and get close to what performance their car has when they cant go to a dyno. I don't believe the hp would be correct on a highly boosted application but then agian you need tunning to get the vehicle running right.
I have to say the graphs are amazing and the accuracy is really good my zx3 focus with nothing but a muffler with resonator removed came out to 100whp so gotta say this is a must have app for any car enthusiast !
yeah it will work. just get it through iTune and install it into your ipod touch. I just got this program and it's pretty cool. cant say its better than gtech b/c i dont have gtech.
Just try to read all comments but not point, that garage bla bla is sold soul, I think like somebody told "Apple has an amazing marketing department that is willing to do anything to sell their phones." and how that people wish to buy something what not see and try ( think on first realize of I Phone)
its guys like this that make racing not as credible....possibly on the iphone ap payroll....didnt mama tell you son ..if u have nothing nice to say ..shut up haha.....its possible you dont got your g tech calibrated correctly also
lol if the slips were all reasonably similar then you should have shown the iphone results with each slip, not just one that happened to match up with a slip you had.
Sorry but this story smells fishy.
You have the gtec sideways for christs sake. For some reason, probably money driven, you are pushing a toy iphone app that may or may not be very accurate and calling the gtec shit. All we know is you took one slip and matched it to one time on the iphone. Were they the same run? we dont know.
Dont want the g tec to fall off? CLEAN YOUR FUCKING WINDSHIELD
Dont want it to start timing while your doing a burnout? THEN DONT FUCKING PRESS START YOU FUCKIN IDIOT. Positive g force triggers the timer. It wont start timing until you press the button and it says go. You dont press that until your staged. The i phone would do the same thing
Your a fucking idiot and dont know shit about cars. Maybe try doing more then one run and see how accurate it is
And last but not least, you do NOT have to calibrate it for every car. For times like 1/4th mile, 0-250 250-0 and every time in between there is no need to calibrate.
If you do calibrate, you get a lot more features than the Iphone app; you get complete torque and hp graphs. Which is way more usefull then a peak hp reading.
This is no rant about Dynolicious, which is great, especially for the money. But it's funny to see how people who don't know how to use a G-Tech think it's horrible :D
Sorry, but what a n00bs. I have a G-Tech Pro RR and it's very accurate. Enough prove to find that. And why didn't they show the hp reading of the G-Tech? Was it way more accurate and did it not fit in their G-Tech rant?
The G-Tech falling off your windscreen? Maybe the should try and clean their windscreen more than every two years. The thing never fell off. They also don't seem to be able to mount it right; it should be mounted straight! RTFM!
They did weigh the car, and they did calibrate the G-Tech. What they didn't do is read the manual. The manual says that the accelerometer has no way measuring the time it takes a car to leave the staging area, so you are supposed to add .35-.5 seconds to the run to get an accurate figure. If you .5 to the time the G-Tech read, you get almost the exact same time that got posted at the track.
I am impressed with the accuracy of the iPhone software, though.
who cares if they calibrated it correctly or not. The overall point remains, a 13 dollar iphone app is easier to use and a better value than Gtech. Even if the Gtech was spot on, the app is still a better value.
@mushaddiv if your contract runs out you cant use it no more..g-tech never runs out...plus you dont have to make a payment every month.. and what if someone calls wtf...
what contract? you can take apps you buy and switch them to your next iphone. make a payment every month? its a one time fee. If someone calls? its called multitasking. iphones can run an app while receiving a call.
Nice Nice Video. I really loved your video. Youtube can be a great asset for you. If you need any help getting your video exposed, check out this site called tubeviews [dot net] It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 Channels up with videos at top in position and this is my forth channel i'm going to working on.
I don't own either of these devices, but this video did suck -- You have to set up the iPhone just like the G-Tech. You can't just put it into the car if you want to calculate horsepower/torque ... you must put in vehical weight, cargo weight, passenger weight, etc.... Not so much a biased video, as the guy yapping was talking out of his ass (his buddy should have corrected him). If he wants to give away the G-Tech, hook me up.
GTECHs are only as accurate as the settings in it. In other words, if you, like 95% of people with a gtech, are too dickless to set it up properly, including knowing the ACTUAL weight of YOUR car (did you weigh your car with you in it?) then it wont have a prayer. If you set it up properly, its actually fairly accurate.
Next time you make a video showing that an iPhone app is better than some sort of real software, just go ahead and smash the software with a hammer first fucking idiot. you fucked up every part of that test for the G-tech and it's dead obvious too. Anyone with half a brain will laugh at this video and the rediculous bullshit within.
Every knows that G-tech sucks? Umm i've never heard anyone say that. Watch the G-tech video with the BMW M3. The guy makes like 10+ runs at a dragstrip using the G-tech at the same time and the G-tech is never more than a few hundredths of a second off. I have a Passport Escort GT1 Timer, an off-brand of the G-tech and I used it at the dragstrip and it was always within a few hundredths of a second and 1 mph.
Wow this is the biggest bullshit i've ever seen. first of all the G-tech screen was not even shown so we can already assume they could be lying about the G-tech's time. Second, the G-tech was facing towards the driver and the Iphone was centered which makes a difference. And third, the default rollout distance setting on the G-tech = a very light stage at the drags. He staged so deep that the top light wasn't even on.... That was EASY to disprove.
No wonder the G-tech results were inaccurate! Look at the way it's mounted in the car in the video - you haven't followed the instructions and mounted the unit with the screen facing the rear of the car, it's angled up and towards the driver!
That's funny... I benchmarked dynolicious on a few different iPhones against a Racelogic Vbox (GPS datalogger that most magazines use to get performance figures) and it was, without fail, miles out from actual. This sounds suspiciously like an infomercial.
have you put the iphone on a solid mount? i honestly havent had much problems with it besides figuring out that the mount has to be solid to get accurate results. i like the iphone app cause its cheap and works pretty damn good imo.
very nice comparison, i bought a gtech like 4 years ago and for what it was it worked fairly well, not completely acurate but it worked in its time, dynolicious looks to be alot better, im hoping someone comes out with a similar app for the blackberry storm as it also features an accelerometer.
wow your a fucking idiot. you know those things you do before you do your 1/4 mile run? its called a BURNOUT-- thats when he stated it fell off. dumbass
Go back and watch the video and listen this time before you talk shit. He said it fell off a couple times, but during the video it stays on the whole time. Now for the dumb ass that would be YOU and anyone else that starts the g tech before the burnout and not after the burnout because motion starts any accelerometer. Again watch and you can see the driver start the g tech after the burnout and have no problems. The garage419guy talked shit just like you.
250bhp reading 118 to 120 ... that's because G-Tech calculates power left to accelerate the car after losses through air resistance and gearbox/drivechain...
Granted 130hp is a big loss ... did you follow the instructions for testing horsepower rather than just gunning it for a 0-60 time and then looking at the horsepower?
Haha not bad. pretty accurate the iphone was. lucky for me i got both G-tech SS and Ipod touch with wi-fi. However the G-tech is very sensitive, I cant use the fan or stereo or anything like that when using the G-tech. Maybe ipod is the better choice.
they deep staged to make the number seem more off lol in the manual g tech says to get similar results u need to shallow stage as much as possible lol
the only time reaction times matter is during a real race, when the light turns green the timer starts. but in time trail passes like what they showed in the video, the timer starts when your car moves.
would like to see how well this would work on a "fast" car.... something at least 11 second 1/4 mile or quicker. when we used to use the g-tech the quicker the car was the more inaccurate it got.. slow cars (cooper) were always pretty dead on....

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The reaction time can not be considerd and therefore shows how wrong your Iphone is in your video, unless your Iphone and the tree were syncronized. yea right. you dont know what the hell your doing obviously
Its great how companies now use web shows to LIE to people.
The GTECH has been tested by many companies as being as accuratte as the $12k system magazines like R&T and C&D use.
Apple has an amazing marketing department that is willing to do anything to sell their phones.
Wait a min, how the hell does the govt have anything to do with iPhones, Programs(apps) and basically this video :)? I am lost here. Anyways great video can't wait to test out the app on my phone.
lol, i have two negatives because people don't understand how drag racing works.
What's to elaborate on? Go to the drag strip sometime and when the green light hits, sit there and wait for awhile, then go. Your time won't be any worse with a 5 second reaction than a .001 reaction.
I've won races at the strip as far as time is concerned and crossed the line last and vice versa.
THE TIME DOESN'T START UNTIL THE LINE IS CROSSED NOT WHEN THE GREEN LIGHT HITS.
the gtech can be fiddly, but it can give accurate results with some tinkering with the settings, such as rollout, weight including driver, it usually likes to be mounted front row centre not twisted and just slapped on the window its not that type of thing. the gtech is factroy set for shallow staging so you launch and it triggers a little while after, you can change that. and you usually have to plug into the computer to see the real results.. yes.. very fiddly. dynolicious might prove useful.
A little detail that Garage 419 failed to note - [b]reaction time[/b].
The R/T on the slip was .926, meaning .426 seconds behind the green. The clock (that ultimately timed them at 15.614) starts at the green.
The gtech read 15.16. When you add the .426 seconds sitting at the line...the time is TADA...pretty fuggin accurate (15.58). The iPhone read 15.64, however, when you add .426, the iPhone is the one a 1/2 second off and the gtech pro becomes the winner of 1/4 mile drag time.
when you make a run at a track your reaction time doesn't affect your overall time.
the reaction time is the time it take from the light turning green to your tires passing the light and the E.T. is the time it takes from your tires crossing the lights to the time you cross the finish line.
Exactly. On a "sport tree" like we used the R/T doesn't matter. If we had used a "pro tree" like in Top Fuel or Funny Car, the R/T would count. But we didn't.

This is no rant about Dynolicious, which is great, especially for the money. But it's funny to see how people who don't know how to use a G-Tech think it's horrible :D
japjef 2 years ago
Sorry, but what a n00bs. I have a G-Tech Pro RR and it's very accurate. Enough prove to find that. And why didn't they show the hp reading of the G-Tech? Was it way more accurate and did it not fit in their G-Tech rant?
The G-Tech falling off your windscreen? Maybe the should try and clean their windscreen more than every two years. The thing never fell off. They also don't seem to be able to mount it right; it should be mounted straight! RTFM!

They did weigh the car, and they did calibrate the G-Tech. What they didn't do is read the manual. The manual says that the accelerometer has no way measuring the time it takes a car to leave the staging area, so you are supposed to add .35-.5 seconds to the run to get an accurate figure. If you .5 to the time the G-Tech read, you get almost the exact same time that got posted at the track.
I am impressed with the accuracy of the iPhone software, though.

i have to agree,
even the most accurate instruments are inaccurate if you dont callibrate them and use them correctly,
these two clowns dont even know how to mount the g-tech straight,
probably the kinda guys that think they dont need to read any instructions for anything they buy,
the good news is people like that are easy to beat on strip or street.
spock2021 2 years ago
who cares if they calibrated it correctly or not. The overall point remains, a 13 dollar iphone app is easier to use and a better value than Gtech. Even if the Gtech was spot on, the app is still a better value.

what contract? you can take apps you buy and switch them to your next iphone. make a payment every month? its a one time fee. If someone calls? its called multitasking. iphones can run an app while receiving a call.

I'd love to see the Dynolicious put head to head on some FAST cars, I've yet to see a test on anything faster than a 14 second car.
Lets put this in some tire lifting, big block, nitrous huffing, turbo spooling cars and see how accurate it is then.

your a bunch of morons saying the gtech is crap.
i used a weighbridge to work out the exact weight of my car (with me in it), then calibrated it.
went to willowbank raceway (Famous australian dragstrip) and my quarter mile time on the gtech, was within 0.01 of the drag strip time

Omarionawedw 2 years ago
I don't own either of these devices, but this video did suck -- You have to set up the iPhone just like the G-Tech. You can't just put it into the car if you want to calculate horsepower/torque ... you must put in vehical weight, cargo weight, passenger weight, etc.... Not so much a biased video, as the guy yapping was talking out of his ass (his buddy should have corrected him). If he wants to give away the G-Tech, hook me up.
mbdulka 2 years ago
GTECHs are only as accurate as the settings in it. In other words, if you, like 95% of people with a gtech, are too dickless to set it up properly, including knowing the ACTUAL weight of YOUR car (did you weigh your car with you in it?) then it wont have a prayer. If you set it up properly, its actually fairly accurate.

Rastamanjungle 2 years ago 2
Every knows that G-tech sucks? Umm i've never heard anyone say that. Watch the G-tech video with the BMW M3. The guy makes like 10+ runs at a dragstrip using the G-tech at the same time and the G-tech is never more than a few hundredths of a second off. I have a Passport Escort GT1 Timer, an off-brand of the G-tech and I used it at the dragstrip and it was always within a few hundredths of a second and 1 mph.

SpyderRios 2 years ago 3
Wow this is the biggest bullshit i've ever seen. first of all the G-tech screen was not even shown so we can already assume they could be lying about the G-tech's time. Second, the G-tech was facing towards the driver and the Iphone was centered which makes a difference. And third, the default rollout distance setting on the G-tech = a very light stage at the drags. He staged so deep that the top light wasn't even on.... That was EASY to disprove.
gtdrummerdude 2 years ago
No wonder the G-tech results were inaccurate! Look at the way it's mounted in the car in the video - you haven't followed the instructions and mounted the unit with the screen facing the rear of the car, it's angled up and towards the driver!

Go back and watch the video and listen this time before you talk shit. He said it fell off a couple times, but during the video it stays on the whole time. Now for the dumb ass that would be YOU and anyone else that starts the g tech before the burnout and not after the burnout because motion starts any accelerometer. Again watch and you can see the driver start the g tech after the burnout and have no problems. The garage419guy talked shit just like you.

suzukialtoturbo 3 years ago
250bhp reading 118 to 120 ... that's because G-Tech calculates power left to accelerate the car after losses through air resistance and gearbox/drivechain...
Granted 130hp is a big loss ... did you follow the instructions for testing horsepower rather than just gunning it for a 0-60 time and then looking at the horsepower?

The reaction time can not be considerd and therefore shows how wrong your Iphone is in your video, unless your Iphone and the tree were syncronized. yea right. you dont know what the hell your doing obviously
Its great how companies now use web shows to LIE to people.
The GTECH has been tested by many companies as being as accuratte as the $12k system magazines like R&T and C&D use.

if you add the late reaction time to your gtech meter it is correct and you iphone was off.
Neither can determine your reaction time.

acclerometers can only determine after the time you move

Iphone - Wrong
You dont know how to use the gtech. You are dumb if you think something as simple as the gtech is difficult to use.

What's to elaborate on? Go to the drag strip sometime and when the green light hits, sit there and wait for awhile, then go. Your time won't be any worse with a 5 second reaction than a .001 reaction.
I've won races at the strip as far as time is concerned and crossed the line last and vice versa.

the gtech can be fiddly, but it can give accurate results with some tinkering with the settings, such as rollout, weight including driver, it usually likes to be mounted front row centre not twisted and just slapped on the window its not that type of thing. the gtech is factroy set for shallow staging so you launch and it triggers a little while after, you can change that. and you usually have to plug into the computer to see the real results.. yes.. very fiddly. dynolicious might prove useful.

A little detail that Garage 419 failed to note - [b]reaction time[/b].
The R/T on the slip was .926, meaning .426 seconds behind the green. The clock (that ultimately timed them at 15.614) starts at the green.
The gtech read 15.16. When you add the .426 seconds sitting at the line...the time is TADA...pretty fuggin accurate (15.58). The iPhone read 15.64, however, when you add .426, the iPhone is the one a 1/2 second off and the gtech pro becomes the winner of 1/4 mile drag time.
mattstefl 3 years ago
when you make a run at a track your reaction time doesn't affect your overall time.
the reaction time is the time it take from the light turning green to your tires passing the light and the E.T. is the time it takes from your tires crossing the lights to the time you cross the finish line.
6speedwonder 3 years ago
Exactly. On a "sport tree" like we used the R/T doesn't matter. If we had used a "pro tree" like in Top Fuel or Funny Car, the R/T would count. But we didn't.
