Do they come with with a ACT / IAT (Charge Temp) sensor ?

EDITED to say the above applies if were talking about ACT guages but there should deffo be a charge temp sensor to the ECU.

Yeah, im talking about standard. I would of thought they come with a sensor for the ECU as standard (same as the s1/s2 does).

The fiesta rs turbo does have an air charge temprature sensor but its on the inlet manifold rather than the charge pipe

Thanks.

Im pretty shure they are the same as long as you have the aluminium adapter that come off with the sensor.

An XR2i has an air temperature sensor in the same place, but the sensor is NOT the same as a FRST one. FRST sensors are mounted in a adapter "boss" whereas the normal ones just screw straight into the manifold.

That picture is small hard to make out the plug, but it looks not to be to me!
As MarkN will confirm for all you boys it has also come to our attention the FRST fuel rail loom is different aswell, so buying a N/A one will cause you grief!
