The one that displays on the Dash is on the drivers side Head, between #1 and #3 Cylinders. If you have to take it out, some Antifreeze will come out, so do it when it's cold if you have to.

have to open up the CAI to get under there, which is actually quite a bitch seeing as the moroso is so tightly packed in together... or is it easily accessible from under?

Youre thinking of the wrong sensor. The one you need to look at is where Merv described.

Pretty easy to find, only thing bolted in the Head. You will burn the **** out of yourself if you feel for it while the car is still warm, let it sit for the night.
