Just use ATAP, EFILive, HP Tuners etc.

If you are talking about after spraying methanol then you're stuck like I am till you add another sensor after the meth injection.

At 5psi of boost without any meth or IC you are probably between 130-150deg IATs after a full run.

you will need to remove the iat timing tricker you have, and wire up the iat/act sensor to measure the incoming air temps to the TB.

Where would be a good place to find an aftermarket IAT sensor? I need to measure after the MAF.

I have an Autometer 2 channel intake temp gauge, it has two probes and a button on the controller to switch between the two. I have mine before and after the Intercoolers. On a hot 90 deg day precooler temps are like 170 and after the Intercoolers its about 100. In the winter the temps are like 150, and 70 deg.

Autometer PN 4373
