The twin DBW motor setup is the best way to go especially since we are using the throttle position sensors in the DBW motors. Not using all the extra linkages required for a bell crank setup as needed with a single DBW motor setup is a very good thing. It’s much easier to setup each bank individually as there is less slop to start with and there are far less linkages to get sloppy or out of adjustment and PID setup is easier/better.
My tuner (works for an IMSA GTP Championship team) basically insisted on the 2 motor setup because of his experience with single motor setups on 2-bank engines.

Thanks Scott. I agree. Your setup is the better way to go. Unfortunately, with the PMO ITB's, there's no easy way to use two throttle motors without a lot of extra work. I suppose I could attach levers to the throttle shafts between the ITB bodies but at this point, I'll stay with it as it is.
