I have a 2002 Maxima se and im trying to install an aftermarket IAT chip. the following are the instructions given with it but I can't find the IAT plug. any pictures, descriptions or better instructions would be apreciated!!!

BEFORE PROCEEDING BE SURE TO DISCONNECT YOUR BATTERY! THIS IS A MUST!!

1. Locate the IAT Sensor plug.
2. If it has more then 2 wires, that’s not it.
3. Unplug IAT sensor by lifting up the tab on the side of the plug and pulling the plug off.
4. Put the two wire ends of the PROBOOST into the two open holes located on the IAT plug. (The end with the wires) Put one wire into each hole. Gently push it all the way down, but don’t force it.
5. Mount the chip with adhesive or electrical tape so that it’s away from a heat source, in a clean and dry location. It is ok if you bend the pins, as long as they don’t touch.
6. Leave plug disconnected and secure the loose plug with electrical tape so it doesn’t flop around or get into the fan.
7. Reconnect your battery.

Enjoy your extra horsepower!

I am supposed to gain about 20 extra HP. the brand of the chip is Proboost, thanks for the help.

 

20 extra hp? is this the one from ebay?

it doesnt really matter [i[where[/i] the IAT plug is, cuz this thing isnt gonna work. if you are able to return it, do so and spend the money on, well ANYTHING ELSE.

 

If you can't return it, crack open the little black box it comes in and tell us what's inside. I'm thinking its a 5 cent resistor that you can buy at Radio Shack in a plastic box with 2 6" sections of speaker wire. But if you can return it, do.

 

Here it is...

 

Here's the rest of the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WD1V

Looks about as effective as a turd on a stick...

 

LOL! If I paid any money for that, I'd be a bit upset!

 

I bought three and added 60 HP!

 

but that phat mercedes has one yo...so it gotta work.
ima have to peep one of those hot joints.

 

LOL!!!

I'm going to buy this, the electric supercharger, put 3 cans of Outlaw Octane boost in my tank, and then put some stickers on my car. I think I will be putting down at least 500 HP to the wheels! What do you think?

I'm still laughing at Epacy's comment!

 

The IAT is combined with the MAF.

 

how can you possibly get any horse power from an IAT sensor--the sensor is just an input to the computer to let it know how hot or cold the temp is--you cant change it unless you are God and can change the weather

 

Exactly..... the IAT helps with air/fuel mixture by letting the ECM know the temp of air coming into the intake manifold.

 

I thought the idea was to trick the sensor into thinking the temperature is different than it actually is, thus changing the ratio. Anyway, it is a crock.

 

What a dipsh*t.
