its on the intake manifold where the iat2 would normally go, the iat1 sensor doesnt fit so it required sometime of gasket, (I used a small piece of rubber hose cut a hole in it) and also needs something to hold it in, due to it not having the same hole as the iat2 to hold it in place. I used a piece of metal with a hole in it to keep it down. Works.

would appreciate it, just got back from data logging low boost, 0-5psi, seems to have gone well. Did see between 11-10 afr was bouncy since i didnt hold boost to long. But will go from there, did find another problem... meh.. oil is leaking from the dipstick where it meets the pan.. how do I go about fixing that? I think I read somewhere ionninja just took his out I believe.. ill have to research, gotta leave for work in an hour though.. cant drive with an oil leak.. 
ok, nice, so, were on the same page lol.. the body of the supercharger is touchable, but the snout was boiling hot.. was just making sure.. its getting hotter out iat is now 114* ambient is 100*

What do you normally see after wot? Or sitting at a red? I am running like a very little coolant and mostly water. When i put the radiator hose oni just drained the coolant (most of it) and replaced with water..i figured az doesnt if cold so no worries for freezing.. I may go back to coolant if it keeps it cooler.. It may have air still left in the system maybe..

The cooling systems on these cars are really great from the factory. Even some of th race cars GM made, still retain an unmodifed cooling system.
Yes coolant helps with boiling but its mostely the system being pressurized that raises the boiling point in the water. If the car is ever gettin above 225 steadily then there is a prob with the system. A leak, faulty thermostat, fans or the cap not holding pressure.
I'm gonna be doing a flush on my cooling and plan on runnng more water then coolant. Gonna do more like a 80/20 water/coolant mix since water cools better then coolant. We rarley see freezing here plus I have a garage to keep the car in, so not worried about it freezing over.

Ok great day. Updated tune. Went wot! Only saw 13.5-14psi but in 2nd gear i had the interceptor recording hp it said 291 thats kinda high? Sounds to good to be true is there something i need to change like altitude? Just curious.. Also ambient is off doesnt seen normal.. Going to data log here in a few when it cools abit more.
