Roadrunner, the IAT sensors are not in the airbox on a stock SVT because they never came with an "Airbox" it came with a cone style filter with a plastic casing over it. The sensor is in the flexable air pipe between the maf and throttlebody. It came that way stock. on Non SVT the IAT is located in the airbox. Hey Mike, post those pics.

If it doesn't, then the MAF readings are inaccurate.[/QB]
Ok, I finally took some pictures. The first 3 show's that the IAT is downstream of the MAF on my SVT. I did not have to touch it when I installed my KKM, therefore what you see is the same for a stock SVT.

And here are pictures of a non-SVT airbox (Kim's Cougar), and an SVT airbox (Mine). See the small hole in the side of the non-SVT airbox? That's the stock location for the IAT. Notice there is no hole on the SVT airbox.

Is the MAF sensor? The thing with the 6 little wires... and that black thing on top... laugh

My motor is out of the car and "some how" the mechanic said it cracked... "but it doesnt affect/effect (which ever) anything" was what the guy said... but I want to buy a new one... anybody?
