Actually, soundengineer currently runs his in his intake manifold, and is having very good luck with it in his N/A application (details on the HPTuners Forum if you are interested). I will also be going this route, also N/A.

Hmmmmmm...that's kinda cool...they actually list the proper table to use. I have a feeling you'll be maxing out even that MAF, though, simply due to the PCM's inability to read past the 511 g/s mark...

No doubt it works...a turbo car is NA until the boost hits...and it works great driving around NA....but is it optimal....no....you're skewing the IAT data due to heat soak from the manifold....why do that unless you have a packaging issue?

Actually, on later Operating Systems (my 2002 in particular), you have the option of using a Complex Cylinder Charge model, and you can set how it is biased. So far, it seems as if people are having good luck biasing the model directly in between the IAT and ECT...it seems to be more stable, although it requires different fueling values in the VE table. SD has some quirks to it, and running lean on warm restarts is one of them.

That, and some of us don't even run a lid on our cars

Oh...and I get plenty of heat soak sitting on top of my radiator...the IAT sensor just isn't in a good spot in the lid or MAF to get enough airflow to read the actual temp. Many of us sit there and watch our idle IAT at low airflows, and it adjusts very SLOW.

How about 67lbs/min at 3200rpm

or 512g/s for the metric folks....

I use the maf for low speed stuff and it works well.

RPM vs PE over 3200rpm....and it works well for what it does.

Interesting placement for the IAT. As far as "wet" skewing, not really. There could be a minute temp difference, but nothing to be concerned about since the IAT vs. tables are not in 1* increments. In the lid does not seem to be optimal at all, shooting large dry shots of nitrous mine takes at least 12 frames or so (HPTuners), from activation to recognize the temp diff. which for large dry shots can be dangerous is tuned off the IAT vs. I wanted to swap to a new Z06 Maf with IAT integrated, but I dont want the hassle of dialing in a new MAF Table, and much like onfire, I am maxing mine out well before redline. So, this might be my new ticket to IAT vs. tuning once I swap to the 2002 OS and SD. Thanks for posting pics. Got anymore during install, showing the hole etc?

Sorry man, no other pics....it's real easy though as the plug comes predrilled for a map sensor..just have to put it in a drill press and drill it for a 3/8 18npt tap...just make sure to located the drill bit so you don't cut through the oring seal...then just tap it for threads...real easy since it's aluminum...cuts easy...

It's not a shelf item....just give Ed Potter a call...you don't need it unless your turbo(s) are hung below the oil pan.

Thanks 4 the info guys.

Onfire... Do you know if I could drill n tap a 2003 LQ4 intake and install IAT sensor there.
If so should the hole be drilled n tapped right behind the throttle body?

I'm trying to get my alky kit going on my Turbo Sierra Denali QS. This thread has helped so far...

Nice TA Matt.

Thanks, GT67METHV!. Nice setup, I like the ease of putting the Meth sprayer and the IAT sensor in the fitting before the throttle body... I'd rather do it that way... prevents drilling holes in expensive parts & saves headaches.

Much appreciated buddy.

OK what are all the parts needed to instal a threaded IAT in a LS6 intake?

what phone #'s and contacts will i need to get it done, also can this be done with the intake on the motor,

the e-bay link for the mass air is not working anymore, i was just going to use a SLP/LS1 85mm 01-02 f-body mass air sensor . Are these 4"
thanks for your help

Holy old thread batman!!!

I tapped my LS6 intake hole from where I removed the nipple coming out for what was the factory EVAP vacuum line.





I just drilled it a little smaller than the thread on the sensor, and then I used the sensor itself to tap the threads. Theres no need to worry about messin up the threads on the sensor because you are threading it into plastic.

OK nice! But where is your factory EVAP vacuum line purging to now ? and does that line purge all the time, i think the factory EVAP vacuum line has a solinoid in it , is it only a start up thing ???

also what IAT sensor did you use,

I can defently see installing a IAT sensor where you did ChevyChad, because it is nice and thick there plenty of room to make threads, but on top of the intake you cant tap it from what i seen, its to thin.

Do you have any pictures with the IAT sensor installed ?

Please show
