I am looking to purchase a 99-00 SI AEM CAI to go on my B18C with Skunk2 IM.

I was looking at this picture and wondering what this black hole below the valve cover breather nipple is used for. My current GSR CAI from AEM does not have this hole, so I am a little confused.

 

its a hole for a sensor. I forget what its called

 

There is a Sensor that plugs in there.. .. Get one for a Del VTEC.. Or any 92-95 Civic

 

Its the IAT (temperature) sensor, right?

 

Yep just a hole for the sensor.
I don't need one for my d15 so i just used the plug to plug it up.

 

yes IAT sensor hole....if u dont have one, plug it

 

Does the plug come with the CAI? I am buying it from a guy, and he claims he has all the original parts.

 

should come with a grommet, but not a plug....it isnt meant for your car...meant for obd2 si....

I realize it is meant for an OBD2 engine, but I just want to know where I can source a little plug.

 

duct tape or try and find somethin at like auto zone. hope it fits really tight tho. I'd tape it or just get one made for your engine.

 

Take it to Home Depot Ryan, they should have a plug for it.

 

My brother simply used duct tape... worked just fine

Long time no talk Guardson, I am surprised you still remembered my name.

I will definitely take it to Home Depot; worst case scenario, I end up wrapping it in duct tape

Thanks everyone for the quick replies!

 

You have an SK2 manifold. If it's anything like the ITR manifold there is a sensor in the middle of the intake runners. That is the IAT. Right behind the injectors.

So you don't need that hole if you have the IAT plugged in already.

The Skunk2 manifold is not installed yet. I am gathering all the parts for the big install in about a week or so. I am almost 100% sure I will not need the hole.

 

If it's not on the GSR intake.. you definetely don't need it.

I'd like to know where it is on the GSR manifold then.. hmm. Same place as the ITR/SK2?

 

There is a Sensor tThere is a Sensor that plugs in therehat plugThere is a Sensor that plugs in theres in therTherThere is a Sensor that plugs in theree is a Sensor that plugs in theree

 

thats is the best color aem

 

shoulda got the ITR aem cai...
no extra hole, and its 3 inch
much better than the si intake

 

Intake Air Temperature sensor hole i think....

 

alright guys.. we've established what it is.

 

identify this hole. . . hahaha

 

yea its a temp sensor i am pretty sure

 

WTF.. uhh i think u are suposed to USE that hole.. not just fill it in w/ tape bro

 

I believe that it's for an OBDII SI and since the tube was being run on an OBDI (less sensors and hoopla do deal with) it was not needed. It didn't hurt anything and ran like a champ.
