Acceleration measurements?

I'd like to be able to rely on Torque Pro measured 0-100 kmph acceleration times. Is the algorithm based on GPS, tablet's accelerometers, ODB-2 data - or all of them? I guess it's all of them, and is so, will using an external GPS receiver with 10 Hz refresh rate make my 0-100 kmph time more consistent and realistic?

Bump:)

I'd really appreciate an answer to this question... I'm trying to increase my car's performance in various ways, and 0-100 acceleration time is one of the most important parameters to asses a tune efficiency. People advise to buy the specialized tool in the form of Vbox Sport - but it's not cheap, and while it does measure acceleration more precisely it doesn't do so many other things that Torque Pro does.

So: how much do the 0-100 (or 0-60) times depend on the tablet/smartphone GPS refresh rate, when compared to other input (from OBD-2 scanner)? Is it worth it to buy an external 10 Hz GPS receiver, and which other Torque Pro functionalities will benefit from it?
