IAT sensor question...

Post by Blindmelon »

Okay. Perhaps I have fallen victim to some hype, but I bought one those IAT (Intake Air Tempurature)sensor mods off of Ebay. It was only $8 so who really cares if it doesn't work. The plug in I thought was going to be the one to use has 4 wires going to it whereas the one I need is supposed to have only 2. Does anybody here know where I can find a picture of the plug in I need to use *the IAT sensor plug*. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Just out of curiousity, has anyone else here tried this?

The IAT sensor is built into the VAF, so it has a 5 pin connector. The IAT sensor terminals are THA and E2. But the mod is frankly rubbish - it tells the ECU the air is colder than it really is, so the ECU enriches the mixture too much - this is NOT a benefit.
Re-shaped and re-sized gearshift lever. Best driveability mod you can do!
