MAF GM systems

I wonder...
Run the inlet of both turbos to a Plenum and have the 2 sensors in the
Plenum before they vent to the aircleaner...
It was probably rough because one sensor being used is sensing 3 pulses per
2 rev's instead of 6... air flow was probably bouncing up and down and it
didn't know how to handle it.
