My question did not ask for max. power flow testing. Just testing
that
(in this case) both intake runners flow the same - as they do not
have
the same amount of turns, though they are the same length. If one
flows less than the other this one might run rich and/or the
"straighter" one lean. You might never find out, as the air metering
is before the air hits either runner. If you monitor EGT or have a
Oxygenesensor you also will see an average only......

Wouldn't it make sense to monitor the EGT's on each rotor seperately?

Probably, but it is quite a lot of instalation to find out that things don't
flow equal. But if you can hook up the injectors to be controled by each
sensor individually, it might work just fine. I have no idea if this would
be possible with a ny common controller in use.

I think Tracy's system can handle that.
