I started to install a conical air filter on my '99 Mystique and noticed a wire attached to what looks like a sensor going to the upper airbox. There dosen't seem to be any place to attach this to the new filter. Anybody know what this is and what it does? Is it necessary? Thanks.

It is important, its your air intake sensor. It should get connected to your intake pipe along with the rest of the hoses, not the filter itself.

IAT-(Induction Air Temp, or something like that)

Most good conical conversion kits come with an IAT sensor relocation kit.

Thanks for the replies. That helps a lot. I'm used to working on all the pre computer stuff.
