IAT Placement on Turbo car? Post meth nozzle, pre-meth, charge pipe, where? And why helps too. I've seen STS puts it pre-meth., but seen pics of ppl drilling into the EGR blank on the intake.

Where: intake is the best place possible or after the meth nozzle. Charge pipe right before the TB too, but still after the meth nozzle.
Why: It is the cleanest IAT reading before it actually enters the combustion chamber, especially when running meth. You want the PCM to see the IAT dropping due to the meth, you can then increase timing for more power. The colder the IAT's the more timing you can run.
My understanding at least.

You always want the aircharge temp sensor to register the actual air temps going into the motor..... no exceptions.
