Not sure how this one works, but if I read / remember correctly, the CIS
air plate sensors are referred to as "mass air sensors". I believe that
they correctly compensate for temperature based density changes.
As far as altitude based oxygen density changes, one question comes to
mind:
Does the percentage of oxygen in the air (by mass) stay the same as
altitude changes? If not then mas air flow isnt enough to predict oxygen
mass.
Just a thought.
