installing stillen intake help
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.

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.
