I've looked over the site a bit. It appears that there are no "magic" algorithms that process the engine RPM data to determine power output. There is so much data to be manually loaded by the user that the data is really no different than that which can be deduced from CarTest or other freeware programs. I'm sure they'll sell some of them, however. For about $20 on "tuner day" at the track, you can learn a whole lot more.
