Ya, I figured as much. Of course then the question is whether the relatively
aged contraption that is the Wasserboxer-Digifant stands to gain much by the
extra significant digits you get from a MAF sensor. I was just curious
whether the job of adapting a MAP reading to the Digifant is easier or
harder than the MAF. A MAP sensor sure would be easier to attach on the
mechanical side, and a barometric sensor is certainly cheap.
