Default Question about anderson powerpipe and Procharger inlet tube.

I picked up a power pipe for my prochaged 4v. My question is in the instructions anderson says to relocate the IAT senser from the inlet tube before the blower to the discharge tube right before the throttle body, will this affect the tune on the car? It sounds like it would have some effect considering its being move from before the s/c to after the sc and after the intercooler?

That is the right way to do it. Relocate it there so the IAT sensor is recording the actual temperature of the air going into the motor.

I think Procharger and Vortech have them in the intake tubing to have an over conservative tune.

I'm pretty sure moving it would require a new tune.

My tuner actually wouldn't even strap me down to the dyno until he confirmed proper placement of the IAT. Mine is about 12" before the throttle body on the discharge of the supercharger.
