Automatic MAF reorientation #113

Closed DeeEmm closed 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Reorientation of MAF sensor for reversing bench flow direction

Describe the solution you'd like MAF reorientates automatically

Describe alternatives you've considered Removing and reinstalling MAF in opposite direction

Additional context MAF removal and reinstallation is cumbersome.

Add some method by which the MAF sensor can be automatically reoriented. This may be possible using a stepper motor and cartridge style MAF.

The requirement for MAF reorientation is negated when the Audi RS4 MAF is used as this is capable of reading flow in both directions. Whilst that solution does not physically reorient the MAF sensor is should be adequate in most cases for measuring reverse flow.
