Here's a cool-sounding application for all you car buffs out there. Developed by BunsenTech, Dynolicious is is an automotive meter that uses the accelerometer built into the iPhone and iPod touch to measure all sorts of performance characteristics of your vehicle. That's because the accelerometer allows Dynolicious to sense and sample your car's motion up to one hundred times per second, data it then uses to determine speed and distance travelled.

As a result, the software can automatically measure 0-60 acceleration, 1/4 mile elapsed time, lateral g's, and horsepower. Dynolicious will also maintains a history of test runs, showing you averages and trends in your results. It even allows you to enter modifications performed to your vehicle, and will instantly show before-and-after results so you can identify gains or losses, according to BunsenTech.
