Rev - iPhone App
Anyone have any experience with this app?

Claims to read codes, boost pressure and a number of other things by attaching a cable to OBDII port that then transmits data wirelessly to iPod or iPhone.

Is there a website w/more info on this? I'm also interested, if only because it'd be smaller (I'm guessing) and more handy than my current scanner, an Innova...

My buddy gave me the cable and an app store gift card to buy the app so I'll be trying it out soon.

For anyone interested there is an app call Rev Lite that is free.

I have had the Rev app and Kiwi wifi cable for almost a year now and like many other people was doubting its capabilities. Its been used on the 650i, Range Rover Sport and the 996. Since it connects directly into your OBD-II port, the information it collects and records is only as good as the software used to run the app. It will only measure parameters the vehicle was intended to record from the ecu. It can datalog runs, measurements, etc and then can be upload to your email to see recordings done every 3 seonds formatted to a excel spreadsheet. I'll be happy to post up screen shots of the app in action and the speadsheets. A fun little gadget.
