I don't have one either but it's on my list of things to do this weekend. I have the gromet from my AEM intake and the little connector that goes into it for the sensor. I just need to be careful not to drill the hole too big or else i'll have a boost leak.

I drove around for a month without the IAT in the pipe. It doesn't do much. It's only purpose would be to trim the injector pulse, and a tiny amount at that. It probably just gives a factor to the MAP to adjust the volume. I'm assuming that if you're using the SF fuel kit, it wouldn't really make a difference, since the fuel kit doesn't really depend on the injector pulse, but depends on the pressure to force it through. I run on a return fuel system, and it didn't change anything before or after it was in.
You won't get a CEL unless you actually cut the sensor off the wires.

What did it say about the IAT sensor?

it just said that the temp was too high...i think that that is what was wrong, that it may have touched a hot spot on the engine
