Anyone on this list try "The Home Dyno"?  Check out their web site -

This system uses an inductive pickup on a spark plug wire to generate a
sound file that you record on a portable recorder while making an
acceleration run in the car.  The software analyzes the sound file and
generates a HP number.  I have bought the software and built a pickup but
have not done any serious testing yet.  I am curious if anyone else here
has any experience with this system.
