i was installing my stillen hi-flow intake i just got, but ran into a few problems along the way. i need help locating the ambient air temperature sensor (A.A.T.S), there are so much wires and plugs and i am not sure which one it is. Also, how do you recommend i get the bolts and screws off the MAF sensor from the airbox top and how do i get the screws off the bottom half from the car. I got most of them off, but a few won't budge at all.
thanks for help

All the bolts are 10mm, so for the bottom stock box use a ratchet and extentions. The MAF bolts you can use a ratchet for 3 but one needs a open ended wrench or ratcheting wrench. There is all so a bolt that holds some wires to the top half of the box.

As for the temp sensor its in the stock air snorkel tube. its a little probe in a rubber grommet. It pulls out of the tube. If you have a hole in the end of the stillen filter this is where it is supposed to go, but not to many ppl do it. I had to extend the wires to make it reach. Its okay if you leave it sitting somewhere in the engine bay.

thanx, there is a hole at the end of the filter like the one in your pic. since you said you have to extend the temp sensor, would it be ok if i not touch it at all and just leave it where it is? im going to try to take a look at it tomorrow if i have time.

ooooh, one more question, what kind of midpipe you have there connected to the MAF in the pic? it looks nicer

you can just leave the air temp sensor hanging where it is. if you think about it, it really doesnt make that much a difference since its taking air from inside the engine bay anyways.
i put mine in, but i didnt have to extend any wires:

I have a custom mid pipe. No you dont have to move the sensor, But you need to plug the hole. When I got my filter it had a bolt washer and nut plugging the hole.


yea 95/96 have a different sensor.
