[QUOTE="wnracing, post: 716753, member: 8455"] Sooo.. Some friends and I were putting the solid rack bushings in my car a couple of weeks ago and one of my buddies noticed this... The IAT sensor on my CAI is not actually in the intake tube itself like every other intake on the planet.. I've looked online at a couple of sites with customer pictures and many of the Steeda CAI's are the same, but at some point they re-designed this and re-located the IAT to the side of the tube.. We are questioning the placement of the IAT because it seems that it would not get an accurate reading of the air temp. What do you guys think? Should I drill a hole in my intake and re-locate the IAT or is there any point? Reference photos: This is from an install write-up. From this you can see that the design was changed at some point from the CAI that I have...
