It appears that it would be right where the hood scoop pushes air onto, suggesting that it will push air back from the IAT sensor. It is of my opinion you'd be fine.

Edit - I saw the picture on post 9. I think that would be right where the old intercooler would be so I think you'd be good to go.

Also - Did your car require any special ramps to get onto that trailer with out bottoming out? I'm hauling my car to P&L next week and want to make sure to think ahead.

Yea I still have my scoop so that area is getting flooded without outside ambient air I just didn't know if the sensor my get heat soaked at low speeds and cause problems.

Anyone have an opinion on problems from putting it on the inside of the curve?

Layvon - as far as my trailer goes I have a few tricks. A little trick I learned was to drive the trucks rear wheels up on something to get the trailers tongue farther in the air. Obviously from the picture I have to take the bumper off and usually just put a couple small pieces of wood at the end of the ramps.

That's about where I have my sensor; but my perrin piping goes the other way around.

Do you have it on the inside of the bend or outside?

Outside...

Layvon · 02-12-2013, 10:46 PM

Interesting - thanks! Guys at work said the higher the tongue the better too.

I hope I don't have to tear bumper off. That would be a pain!! Its going to sit at P&L for a week and I don't know how secure their perimeter is.

The trailer I have is similar to yours though so I might have to. Weekend project.

C J · 02-12-2013, 10:52 PM

At this point I just have a couple of the push style quick connects in the center of the bumper and then the connects on the fenders/side of front bumper. Comes on and off in 2 minutes.

Layvon · 02-13-2013, 08:34 AM

That's pretty slick. Am I over thinking that?

C J · 02-13-2013, 10:32 AM

Over thinking? Probably.

I do that a lot...

kellygnsd · 02-13-2013, 10:39 AM

Yes you are over thinking it. Instead of putting all the stock plastic clips on just use a few. Right now my entire front bumper is held on by 8 clips

Layvon · 02-13-2013, 10:46 AM

I will have to figure out another way to secure the wheel well liners.
I should stop being a cheap ass and buy some 06/07 liners so that It fits in there.

I also need to get my headlights out to get the lowbeams working. Lotsa little stuff to do yet before Sunday night.
Sorry for the sidetrack CJ.

C J · 02-13-2013, 11:13 AM

This thread is all over the place anyways. No worries.

Yeah you do...

But I do too, you just don't see it.

C J · 02-18-2013, 06:28 PM

Got my clutch last week. Looking pretty good compared to the stock clutch that I pulled out.

vs.

and due to an issue with the flywheel here she sits until next weekend...

Just to make sure we get the car to stick I ordered a set of these today as well

Layvon · 02-18-2013, 07:21 PM

Damn clean garage.

I think I will need some racing tires for my final mod also.

Looking good CJ

C J · 02-18-2013, 07:48 PM

It was pretty clean until I tore the car apart ha. Now it just smells like gear oil.

C J · 02-24-2013, 11:09 PM

All back together. Quick picture of the engine bay. Installed the catch can, GM IAT sensor, and relocated the coolant reservoir. Still ugly lol.

maxpowr · 02-24-2013, 11:19 PM

Looks way better than my mess.

C J · 02-24-2013, 11:25 PM

Sometimes I swear there is just no pretty way to run some of these lines. If I try to tuck them under they end up binding or just not cooperating. PITA.
