i'm pretty sure typeR did, i think he put it in the intake tube going into the throttle body, but i'm not sure if this has any positive or negative side effects.

sends signal of lower temperatures rather than higher temperatures. higher temps would cause a pull of timing. placing IAT either just loose in engine bay or in the actual intake tube will shows lower temps to keep timing advanced.
