This must be an OBD2 engine.

Cut a hole in the intake tube about 6" from the throttle body. Use RTV or a rubber seal to keep it from leaking.

A D16Y7 IAT (if the car is a Civic) would be ideal becasue it's round and has a rubber seal.

Chris, if you can weld or have someone who can tig, you can run an OBD1 IAT, and weld this to your intake tubing.
