There was a guy who did DIY flowtesting using various adapters, a low =
pressure gauge, duct tape, and a leaf blower. it may not be high-tech, =
but I guess it would be able to tell you a little something about how =
well each intake runner flows...

go down to about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way down the page, you'll find the =
guy's info on it.

Is there a close enough correlation between EGT and A/F to use EGT to =
estimate the relative airflow differences?  I thought that the EGT-A/F =
connection wasn't very exact...but I'm certainly no expert. =20
