Default IAT sensor with boost?

What are you boosted guys using for an IAT sensor? I am just finishing up my boost piping and need to install the IAT sensor. The rubber grommet and factory sensor seems like it would just keep popping out. What are you guys using or doing? thanks.

My trucks, both with Whipple superchargers, use the factory grommet/sensor relocated to where the hot air is, but have a metal hold down bracket (kinda like a distributor hold down bracket) to keep them from flying away .

Search for GM screw in IAT sensor. I think originally they came on GMC Cyclones and Typhoons.

Just about everyone sells them. You will need a 3/8 NPT fitting to screw it in to.
