WELCOME

After buying all those aftermarket products, aren’t you curious

if any of them really improved your vehicle’s performance? Maybe

you’re simply curious about what your vehicle is capable of?

Measuring performance is as important as selecting the products

that grace your vehicle. The two go hand-in-hand. With

SpeedTracer, we’ll help you get answers to those questions.

AutoEnginuity’s SpeedTracer performs vehicle performance

analyses by communicating directly with your vehicle through the

OBD-II connector. It will retrieve RPM, MPH, ambient

temperature, and barometric pressure. Using the weight of the

vehicle, the tire circumference, and the live vehicle data, it will

compute how far the vehicle has travelled in a quarter of a second.

Using Newton’s equation for force, SpeedTracer will use all the

live and inputted data to determine the horsepower and torque.

What’s more, SpeedTracer uses the SAE J1349 standard for

environmental variable corrections, so that these variables will no

longer skew your results.

Now you can perform your dynamometer and acceleration

tests at your leisure and on your schedule—without expensive

hourly rates. I hope you have just as much fun using SpeedTracer as

we did making it.
