    Sorry, I don't remember. Just got a pack of assorted grommets and found one that fits. If I were to do it again, I'd put the sensor under the pipe so it doesn't show.

    I had asetup like this and was told by many 3800 people the using 3 inch piping was hurting power and that with GTP you should run 4 inch piping with no questions. Is there any truth to that because it looks great but I don't want to lose power.

    Okay.. so after breaking my IAT sensor, I found that the hole that I have the IAT sensor sitting in is 5/8 inches. That's just the diameter of the IAT sensor, cause I don't have a grommet around it and just drilled a hole in the pcv.

    i just have a hole drilled in mine, and to top it off we put a little high temp silicone around it. apparantly part of it wasnt sealed off totally, so for a little bit my car whistled like a little turbo was in there
    '00 GT- nothing special
    My only advice: Don't take my advice

    I know this thread is older but I built one of these intakes today and everyone is right, they are insanely loud. I think this is partly caused because inside the tubing there's a slight ridge which I'm going to try sanding down to see if it that helps to smooth it out. Also I didn't drill the hole for IAT so it would be vertical, would that have any effect on it working properly?

    Well yeah but I can't imagine that ridge makes it any better lol. It almost sounds like a horrible grinding noise and it's kinda funny

    GM got lazy and drilled holes and used freeze plugs to create the IAC holes in the TB so they're not designed with noise reduction in mind.

    even through hitachi made them?
