The funky air/fuel numbers from the 2 step are gone by then. I have worked on the intake air temp correction table so even in different temps it seldom ever shows more than 2% fuel corrections on the logger. I would not now run one without the air temp sensor. Helps a good bit with consistency. At first I just zip tied the sensor to a fuel rail, then pulled my head out, and screwed it into one of the bungs in the back of my Hogan plenum. The car is deadly consistent. It could use a better driver. LOL

Thanks Ed. What engine do you have in your Firebird? I have not ran my Firebird (LS1) yet but it didn't have an air temp sensor when I got it. I've since put one on it but then thought later that was probably as waste of money. I still have a lot to learn. It's the one that has the O2 sensor in a primary tube. I look forward to visiting with you. I don't believe we've met yet. If we have sorry I don't remember.
