I need to know where the air intake temperature sensor is on this vehicle. I am trying to install a blue chip performance module. Also if you know the wiring sequence that would help.

The IAT is built into the Mass Air Flow sensor on that vehicle, however I strongly recommend not installing that gimmick. No good can come of it. All your doing is fooling the computer about the temperature of the air coming into the engine. All you will do is create numerous problems in the future and it reall will do nothing for you.

Here is the plug layout

I wasn't so sure about these things to begin with. Thank you for your input and I will not be installing the module.

The theory is that if you tell the computer it's colder that it really it, it will give it more fuel. The problem is all the other sensors are designed to make the car run at a constant 14.7:1 air fuel ratio anyway and if it did happen to run richer, it would ruin the Catalytic Converter and the O/2 sensors.
