Where is your air temp sensor located? Is it in the intercooler pipe or the manifold?

its in the inlet manifold martin,why are you fitting your dta soon?

Just considering putting the sensor in the intercooler pipe before the TB to save me having to take the manifold off to tap a thread into it. Might have to take it apart anyway to get the injectors out

norris mapped mine in that boss on my ic pipe and ken finns is in his ic pipe, but i was told it was better in the plenum, so i changed mine top the plenum.

wheres mine shaun? is it that thing in the side of the plenum?

yep.

mines in the plenum too.

Don't think i can be bothered to put it in the plenum

Where do you lot have the map sensor tapped into? Have you teed it off of the vacuum line to the pressure reg of a specific take off from the plenum?

mines off the std tapped hole (has a blanking screw in from the factory in scims) that faces passenger wing.
I have drilled and tapped the plenum about an 1.5" above that hole for teh air temp sensor so its in direct airflow from the TB. My thinking was (and im probably wrong...) that it would be in the airflow that was most likely to be an accurate representation of the actual temperature.

Yeah my thoughts as well for the air temp hence the intercooler pipe location.

I could put it in the back of the inlet manifold as there is a removable plate easy to tap but it cant be a very good representation of the real temperature
