Hey all, so upon removing the VF blower o noticed the car had been wired with 2 IAT’s.
One originally the MAF (poorly wired at that)
And one spliced in directly in what appears to be in unison...
Likely a long shot as most install kits not remove, but does anyone have an idea of how to clean this up? Ironically the car pulls (HTE Tune) harder than any other s54 I’ve owned, but it idles like shit unless I rev it to 4K, then it’s fine (PO told me this “trick”) obviously this is a terrible solution and I’m thinking it has to do with this wiring hack job
Excuse the dust. Car has sat for 5 months while I slowly find time to wrench on its many issues. Only now is it in a condition to test drive around the neighborhood and work through its gremlins.

, I would ditch the one in the airbox due to heatsoak, leave it place to plug the hole. Maybe you could put the other one further down where the pipe comes up out of the bumper brake ducting piece.
