If you put the IAT sensor in the filter...what size was the hole you drilled it out to? I'm assuming there'* no more to it than making the hole larger and fitting the IAT snug inside? Last time I had this filter I put the IAT in the pipe...this time I want to do it the other way.

If you have a soldering iron you can use that. Expand it by melting away a little plastic till it is snug, and you dont have any shavings inside your filter.

That'* the same thing I did

Yeah, may be hard to get all the shavings out of the filter...no soldering iron here, I'll have to improvise.

hot knife!

You could use a lighter and a nail to do it.

start small and get bigger... you'll get it eventually... i used a drill, but no way in hell im gonna remember what size

I ended up dremeling the hole for the most part. I started carving it out with a pocket knife...was taking too long so I use a dremel w/ a sanding cylinder...was the exact size I needed too. It'* pretty snug in that it won't come out by itself or by the intake torquing. It pulls out by hand pretty easily though.

The intake is in, new cleaned/polished throttle body too. Going for a joyride in a little while

That'* what I did, worked great..
