 Called the Bosch Alpha-N system ....

 :)

 Used for racing, where Alpha is the throttle Angle, and N is the RPM ...

 Not really good for street use (emissions, etc) ...

 but hey, give it a shot ...

 For a bit of adaptability, add a Baro (pressure) sensor and one for 
 air temp .. if you keep the engine system (from air filter to exhaust)
 constant, you can develop a system that works like a speed density...

 Use delta Throttle Angle over time to do accel enrichment ..

 I've been working on adapting a few BMW Motorsport cars (M3,5,6) to this
 system for HIGHLY specialized (true wheel-2-wheel racing) apps
