On the Y8 the IAT is mounted in the intake tube not on the mainfold. When I had a Y8 in my 92 DX I had the IAT mounted in the intake tube also. Extend the wires if you are using the EG wiring harness and plug it up in the tube. You should be able to just plug it in and let it hang until you decide exactly how you want to go about making it look nice and neat.

yes you need to make a hole in your charge pipe near the tb.

And since your boosted try and make sure the intake charge wont leak...When I was boosted I just let my IAT hang...(some people say bad idea, but i did not have any problems I could tell)

I did not have a CEL with it plugged in and hangin +


You did clear the ECU after plugging in the IAT sensor correct? I know the ECU will sometimes reset itself but its a good thing to try.
