lol, I hate the way those things look sticking out of a charge pipe. I stuck it in my actual intake. pulled one of the stock PCV barbs out of my intake, opened the hole up some, tapped it and screwed in an IAT sensor from something GM and old, coulda been a sy/ty like stated earlier, possibly might have been out of a circa '91 Turbo Pontiac Sunbird. can be found at any parts store. If you look on the passanger side of my throttle body and at the bottom (where the stock PCV line goes in) you can see the end of my IAT sensor where it's threaded in....clean install, hidden. I believe in less is more

Edit, walked out I te garage for something and my hood was still popped so I grabbed a quick phone picture of my IAT sensor in my intake.

SS, I do like your idea and seems this is as accurate as you can get for iat. It may not be a huge difference, if anything, from it being out front of the Tb but, nice and clean and out of the way. I do like it!
