you have to drill a hole in ur cold side pipe( close enough to plug the sensor in and connect it) and put the grommit in there and then pop that in.

I would say before it sinced it's before it in the first place...I don't think that it really matters if it's before or after the bov because it's basically just going to get a reading to know when the temperature changes...

no you need that sensor plugged in.the ECM takes into account that sensor to figure out fuel and timing.Its not that big of a deal to make a hole and put it in.

Are there any negative effects w/ installing that sensor in inbetween the throttle body and the MAF? STS kits have that set up.
