Default '95 del sol CAI

Hello guys,
I don't know if this has been asked or if i'm posting this in the wrong section but I just registered here :p.
So I just picked up a '95 del sol with the D16Y8 ESI 125hp engine. I bought a US Racing CAI but I saw I have a MAP or MAF sensor (I don't know wich one it is i'm New to honda's) so maybe you guys could give me some advice on how to install it, it's just a regullar CAI wich should fit right in and it has a hole for the vacuüm thingy (my english isn't to good either please don't kill meh) but do I drill an extra hole for the sensor of what do I have to do?
Hope you guys can help me a bit :p

That's an IAT sensor, not an MAP sensor. You don't have an MAF. That cold air intake (CAI, not CIA) is a waste of time. You will gain nothing from it.

Hi,
Yea sorry I mean CAI :p.
And yea it's not really for gains but more for looks under the hood. Going to be doing some meets in the summer. And what exactly is this IAT sensor?
Thanks for your reply btw.

How are these fartcans? Welded the entire exhaust myself. Straightpiped from the cat . Sounds good in my opinion. Go troll someone else i'm looking for someone Who can serieusly give me advice on my build.

Figured out it's air temperature, sorry if I sound like a noobbut the dutch terms are a bit different :p so do I drill an extra hole in the tubing of the CAI? Because a friends of mine has a celica and he just left his unplugged but I don't want to **** my engine up.
I know I won't gain much from it but I want to clean up the engine bay and make it look nice that's all.

you arent going to see any hp/tq gains from a cia, if the cia doesnt come if the hole just drill one.

When you start your car, and rev it, your setup will give off a fart like sound. I highly doubt its not doing this, especially since you "straight piped from the cat"

So when was trying to put on a cai considered a build?

Well then your farts really sound werd. And yes i'm building it. Just some bolt ons and stuff an the CAI is a part of that. But you are an obvious troll so i'm going to stop replying to this.

Lol, I have far better things to do than to troll, your euro bucket lol. I gave your exhaust setup a moniker, because thats truly what it is, a fantasy of fallacy. Not trying to troll you, learn the difference.

I was trying to get you to realize what it is, useless and looks horrible. But its your car. Proceed.

I've actually seen that exhaust setup on an ek hatch, must be popular where you're from. No kidding either.

Its your ride, do as you please.

Anyways again, just drill the hole a little smaller than the iat so that it would fit snug and not leak.
