drill a hole in the charge pipe and use a grommet to secure it. Mine is in there tight as ---- and has never popped out. As long as the hole is small enough it will be in there tight. Don't be ghetto and ziptie it somewhere. At least place it somewhere that it is reading the intake temps. When you do get it working you'll have to let me know what your iat's read in datalogging because for some reason mine reads abnormally cool temps sometimes down to 50 degrees, but when i datalog on other cars with my same ecu it reads normal.

Also as far as that hose i think your talking about the PCV hose. Don't leave that still plugged into your intake if you are boosted.

Re: IAT Sensor relocated?
hey that grommet idea is cool. i just wound up drilling a hole in my intake pipe right where the stock one would go (after my turbo) and used a lil jb weld to hold the sensor in there. i was careful to make sure no jb go on the end of the sensor itself
