Dumb question............but what do you do with the air temp sensor thats mounted on the air box cover on '95 maxima's, when you replace the air box with a cone filter?

Anywhere in front of thottle body or even in the plenum as the intake air temperature is roughly the same +- 10F.

When you use the Earth's supercharger to get 14.7 psi boost almost any resistance from a filter [oem or cone] is meaningless.
