I'm just curious because ever since i installed my intake the light turned on since there was no hole to plug in the air temp. meter thing. Anyone do anything about it or had to live with it like i did ?

 

leave the snorkel in.

/teH tHreAd

 

I'm actually wondering my-self how to compensate for that sensor, because I will be installing an intake when it arrives on Monday and I definately want to remove the ugly scoop

 

+1! .... im getting the berk next week. what to do with the candy jar........ err ahh the sensor.

 

I don't know exactly what the sensor looks like, but is it possible for you to make a hole in the intake? I'm sure it's made of plastic or rolled aluminum, it's probably not hard to make a hole in it that is similar to the hole in the stock intake system...

IMO, living with MIL/CEL/SES is never okay.

 

Never install an intake that doesn't compensate for the MAF (tube). You have to have the MAF in between the filter and the TB. Get off **** azz Ebay and buy a real intake (Berk, Frankencar, PR, Injen, etc.).

READ ****!

 

He is talking about the air temp sensor... Not the MAF

Anyway, I have mine taped to the front of my battery and I have no light for it.

 

Woops, I see. Why would you unplug that connector anyway?

 

Unplug what? The sensor? it is still plugged in, just taped in place.

The snorkel? because it is ugly...

 

No
........

 

No, I just figured the only reason why he'd have a CEL is because he unplugged it.

 

Ohhh

reading comp> better than both of us today...

 

ehhhh....

Your options are:
1. leave snorkel in
2. zip tie to something like the positive battery cable
3. buy a injen CAI which has the hole for the air intake temp sensor
4. drill a hole to make the sensor fit (IMO not recommended)
5. leave it dangling

 

I've never had a problem. My intake has been on for 20,000+ miles.
