Buckshot, wheres the port for your intake air temperature sensor?

I thought we've pretty much agreed that you want the air temp measured right as it enters the TB in order to provide the PCM the most accurate value so it can make accurate timing and fuel adjustments?

To make it easier, I took my iat and cleaned the little plastic retaining lip off the end and then treated it like a bolt. Keith and I threaded it with a die (approx. 3/8") or something close, then tapped a hole into the exit tank in order to mount it. It works awesome for measuring temps and allowed me to determine the efficiency of my intercooler.
I made a small silicone gasket for it and then screwed it in tightly.
I can snap a picture for you if you like.
