Re: hand held dyno???
It's only an estimate, I'm not sure how close they actually are. DSMLink has that too.

Re: hand held dyno???
Yeah the G-tech. I've heard they are fairly accurate, IIRC they are within 1 tenth in the 1/4. My friend had one in his Fiero. He g-tech'd it after he had all his mods done and the estimate was I think .08 seconds off of what his fastest time in the car was at the track. Not real great, but its a damn good guess.

Re: hand held dyno???
