ITB's - How do they work

How is air-flow measured with ITB's? Does the Motronic (or equivalent) controller still need an air-flow signal to meter the correct amount of fuel?

Just wondering...

With no airflow meter, the computer relies on the throttle position sensor, intake air temp sensor, rpm, and manifold pressure (MAP) sensor to "estimate" the engines fuel requirements.

So I guess I have to trash the Motronic and replace with aftermarket computer?

My 3.4 runs on a Micro tech. Very stable, reasonably priced and easy to use soft ware.

Cheers

Can I continue to use the Motronic to control ignition, and use another controller for the ITB fuel delivery?
