You can get one from FAST. They have a threaded type that we use at the shop. I think they are like 20 bucks or something like that.

I have mine resistored out at 77*. When the car sits, the IAT gets heatsoaked and causes a warm start lean condition until enough air moves across it to cool it off.

If you get just a solid piece of aluminum you can drill and tap it yourself, that's what I did

I also bought an aluminum bung from summit and welded it in. I bought my IAT sensor from Frost (Steve Williams) Its supposed to be very similar to the syclone sensor but updated/a little better. Also where you place it matters you dont want it to be too close to another heat source and throw off the readings, just make sure its after the intercooler.
