Default One for the electronics folks.....

If you have an engine with 1 AFM and 1 air temp sensor, can you add a second afm / air temp sensor off the same wiring, or would this cause issuses?

feeding both outputs in the the same ECU wont work...

But if your thinking of running a 2nd set of sensors and monitoring them seperatly... thats would.

ECU needs to monitor them, to adjust the fuel accourding, as I dont want un metered air going through on one bank of cylinders.
