Intake Air Temperature Sensor Location
Hi Guys,
Where would you recommend mounting the intake air temperature sensor?
Its a turbo engine so would need to be after the intercooler. In the Vipec manual it says the following..
"on a turbocharged/supercharged engine the sensor must be placed AFTER turbocharger and any inter-cooler.
On most applications (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged) the recommended mounting position is in the inlet pipe just before the throttle plate. The sensor may also be placed in a section of the inlet manifold that is subject to high airflow."
It would be easier for me to put it in just before the throttle body but if its better elsewhere i can look at doing so.
Cheers
