It's got to be the screw in type. Our IAT isn't made to seal into a pressurized area.
EDIT: I ordered the screw-in IAT from Part's America. It's going to cut it damn close!
I just used a die to thread my stock IAT(after I filed off the plastic ridge that held it into the stock intake), cut a piece of rubber for a gasket, then drilled and tapped a corresponding hole in the intercooler after the exchanger right before the TB for mounting. Screwed in tight and has held very solid with no leaks.
Took about 30 minutes, cost = $0.00
Spending no money and little effort to make a better part/product/mod.........Priceless.
