Airflow calculations

In ideal NA conditions, how does one calculate airflow for the renesis?

What are typical numbers? Is only max airflow used in calculations? or is there some equation or linear approximation as a function of rpm?

Oh God. There's a ton of info on this subject, most of which is mine.

Just use the equation, PV=mRT, where m is the mass flow rate. I'd write more, but it's late.
