This might be a dumb question, but is using only a single signal input for the computer the best way to go? In essence, if something negative is happening with your slave MAF, you won't really know it.

The electronics will allow us to mointor the inputs on both MAFs and we can control the output as well.

"I don't need no stinkin' MAF sensors!"


Do you have any extra throttle bodies laying around?? I need to take some leave from work, this is getting nuts, ... I also need to get these turbos out of my living room and into my car!!

Interesting...would love to see how you did the scaling.

I have done a little R&D on this... I'd like to see how you deal with the low signal-to-noise ratio.

Good luck with the project

Magicians are masters of misdirection... i hope that's not the case here.

Anyway...I know exactly what it takes to make that work, and have done this several months ago, just hope you get it right and can bring it to the masses.

Not trying to be an arsehole to you, although I admit it seems that way.

This is only true if you are speaking about a turbo car. What about a full n/a build?

I DO know, I was just being facetious.

MAFs are far better than MAPs in many ways. The reverse is true as well for some aspects. It's be nice to have something like this out there.
