Well, Interceptor is a generic term used by the Oz folks mostly -
devices which intercept signals from car sensors, apply some logic to
them and present the changed signals to the original car EMC. The one I
designed is here: https://www.microvore.com/interceptor.jpg

If the MAF does frequency output my board may well do the trick - it
also has analog inputs but no analog outputs at present.
