    ok so i see on intense racing they sell an extension for the iat sensor to be relocated for FWI's....will moving the sensor closer to the fenderwall or in the fenderwall after installing a FWI make anytype of difference?

    Your car will see closer to REAL Air Temps vs. HOTTER Readings it sees now
    These cooler more accurate temp readings will let you see more timing advance
    It's safer than using a resistor on the IAT to "fake" cooler air because your car will still be basing the timing advance on real temps & not blow up your car adding timing it shouldn't

    my bad im tired i read it the opposite way that resistor was safer....ok thanks...every one is so hostile around here lol...so all in all is it safer to just leave it in the stock location...will i even feel a difference if i move it? or not enough of one to go through with it?

    Well, it's safer to leave it, but it's not unsafe to use the relocate and take full advantage of your computers ability to adjust for changes in air temp
