jg intake manifold with intake temp sensor question
For you guys running the victor x manifold, where are you mounting the intake air temp sensor. My neptune tuner is telling me that not having it is screwing with my timing. My car came with the sensor mounted on the intake runner, not the intake charge pipe. I don't see a provision to mount one on the runner of the victor x, so what do you guys do?

My victor X has a place for the bolt in style IAT sensor, it's on the back side with the other 8 holes for other stuff. i can take a pic if you need it.

Yeah would you mind, I am looking to purchase one, but none of the adds show the under/back side. Thanks!

There ya go, enough ports to run a space shuttle. The one you are looking for is in the middle with the plate over it. Also in a better place than the #4 runner on some stock intake manifolds.

In this picture, where did you get the fitting for the tube that goes to the thermostat housing? It looks like its tapped for a smaller fitting (maybe going to the iacv? its been a while since ive touched it ) but what is the thread pitch of the main piece?
Thanks, i want one of these fittings very badly
edit - also, if i remember correct its a very tight bend from that fitting to the thermostat housing. So tight in fact that I HAD to use the prebent rubber from Honda to make it all fit. What did you do to remedy this?

Re: jg intake manifold with intake temp sensor question (B18EG6)
I am going to remedy it by not running water through that fitting, buying an-r race intake gasket and not running water through intake, IAC, or TB. T'ing off the fitting that goes in the side of the head and running that to the T'stat cover.
Fitting came with the intake. I won't be using mine

You mean you will tee off the large ~1 inch fitting coming from the top of the radiator?

Like this, only I won't have the green hoses that are shown in the diagram. Notice the golden tee. You have to tee off of here and run that where the one on the intake is suposed to be otherwise the Tstat wont open and the car will over heat. This is only if you are blocking off that port in the intake that runs hot water through it.
