No. And that's the only thing that's keeping me from dropping more money into my 944 with the 968 motor....

what kind of engine management would you run on that ITB setup. and what kind of load sensing? MAP would fluctuate too much...

alpha n? thats not even that accurate.

Campeck, I have seen some racecars that decide the load based solely off of: Throttle position, temp, and ambient pressure. Its really an awful way to do it, but it can be done. The mazda engines in Formula SCCA cars do it this way.

you can connect a vacuum line to all 4 intake runners and have them going to one line, then connect that to a map sensor. If you tune the engine accordingly it will run ok

this design is sure to suck in a lot of hot air....i hope hes not disappointed with his power numbers

Or run the four lines to a resevoir type deal which smooths out the fluctuations and provides a good vacuum for the brake booster.

Or Alpha-N which doesnt use a MAP or AFM or MAF at all. But yuck to that.
