RE: little sensor on CAI?

Went out and look at my car. My BBK came with a rubber fitting that the sensor(air intake temp sensor) fits into. Put the sensor into the rubber plug and then the plug into the CAI.

RE: little sensor on CAI?

Ya, you get a small rubber grommet (washer with a hole in it) that you must install into the hole in the CAI tube. I tried and tried to first insert the sensor into the rubber grommet and then install it into the CAI tube hole but could not do it. I finally just installed the rubber grommet by itself into the CIA hole and then slid the sensor down inside the whole. It doesn't fit in quite as far as stock but the sensor element is 100% in the CIA tube and does seal itself. Looks a little fragile to me but my car runs perfect. If anyone has an outside photo of this sensor install into a BBK CIA tube, please post it. I have yet to find another way to install this sensor.
