Marc, can you be more specific about 'enough channels for each rotor'.

Where you thinking of EGT for each exhaust port?


We are working on that. I am collecting Mazda solenoid valves so we can
use one pressure sensor and select a bunch of pressure taps. Don't throw
those old Mazda smog air solenoid valves away. Please send them to me.

Del,
Regarding the EGT channels, yes, I was, mostly for fi tuning (balance
the flows, which is possible with Tracy's unit but may be academic,
Tracy?) and for the turbine inlet temp, a critical one. 4 egt channels
(or a switcher that would scan thru the 4 in sequence and identify each
uniquely) would be the most I think anybody might ever need.
