Started the CAI IAT sensor from AeroForce today. Had to run the wire to the inside. Finding the right spot was kinda easy, but hard to get it though. The area had a lot of tape on it and I was lucky to use a 'skewer' to ease it into the car.

First, the location (right above the steering input):



Routed over the master cylinder (once confirmed, I ty-rapped it down):



Next, following the diagram, created a black, green, and white run and place it into the shielding -- then prepped it for soldering:

Wire setup and soldering:





Connector ready to go!



Next, I needed to mount the sensor inside the CAI. To do this I used a 90* plastic piece from one of the air dams I had (when I did the heat exchanger) and opened the hole just enough to screw in the sensor. I then used a 3/8 NPT nut on the other side to lock it down:









Then, drilling a small hole in the CAI, I bolted it down using loctite and clear nail polish (to hold it there in place):



little silicone (dries clear) to help hold it:





Connected!


Put the CAI lid back on and installed the inlet hose to the TB. Double checked everything to make sure its all tight.

Tomorrow, hooking it up to the AeroForce. Still need to do the wiring inside, but the hard part is done!

More to come...
