The monitor/tuner also serves as a performance and diagnostic tool that measures your vehicle’s 0-to-60 acceleration and braking performance, in addition to reading and clearing trouble codes. It can also operate as a rear wheel dynamometer to measure your engine’s power gains, or as a virtual dragstrip to test your reaction and quarter-mile times.
