 Do you happen to know if those changes are linear? Something like this
 would make a cool replacement for the MAS on the Talon. It uses a series of
 honeycombs (that form little diamond shapes). Then it measures the number
 of spinning vortices coming off the honeycomb (via ultrasound) -it's called
 the Karmen-???? phenomenon. It's also a pretty restrictive piece of the
 intake path.
 
 A cylinder with one of these platinum wires crossing it (along w/the
 extra sensors needed) with a PIC as the glue would really be slick, as long
 as the mapping (or math) to do something useful with it wasn't to hairy.
