EFI without a lookup table

[Jody Shapiro]

I'm cross-posting this to both the DIY_EFI list and the F-Body list because 
this topic has come up and I haven't seen anyone mention the item belower 
which looks interesting.

On page 54 of the Feb 96 issue of Chevy High Performance under the article 
"50 Hot New Parts" which talks about items from the SEMA show (Specialty 
Equipment Manufacturers Assocation):

"Ever wondered what your engine's horsepower is at operating conditions? 
 DYNOmite ((603)329-5645) has an onboard dyno that allows monitoring and 
recording of the horsepower at the driveshaft while the car is on the road. 
 The key is an output-shaft-mounted strain gauge."
