yep - at the dyno is a great place to do it

if you are looking for incremental improvements , the best thing is to just log MAF and make comparisons that way ....

Autometer Elite gauges have a datalog capability; analog signal from 0-5V and a digital output of boost - you can also get an autometer logger to gather any other info; or the Dash Daq which allows inputs.

Other than that you have to use load% or MAF -

PLX Devices gauges can also log.

AEM makes a thermocoupler than can also take any 0-5v sensor and log it to a laptop, I believe.

Turn the IAT tables off in the PCM and hook the 5v output from the pressure sensor to the IAT sensor line.
