Torque Engine Performance and Diagnostic Tool
Just wondering if anyone here has used the Torque program on thier Smart Phone along with an OBD2 Bluetooth Adapter? Also, any suggestions on which B/T to buy? My friend and mechanic says it is a pretty good and accurate tool if you have no Dyno close by. Thanks.

I don't know about its accuracy but I bought it recently. I just found a generic bluetooth OBD-II interface for around $35 and it seems to work fine. I keep it in the center console and actually used it today to read an idle-high code (P0507 if I recall correctly). I like it for the fact that I can have it with me any time I might want to check something.

Have you actually tried it to see how much RWHP and TQ you are puting out? Also, I think you can check your 0-60 times and 1/4 mile times too. Am I correct? I know it asks for weight but, if your off a hundred lbs or so it should be pretty accurate.
