Doesnt the 4AGE have one mounted in the back of the air filter box?
Similar to the one mounted on the engine lid of a tubby??

the rev3 has a one in the intake manifold (i got a spare if you need one).

i got mine (i uses a toyota rev3 tubby sensor) installed in a plate i made to replace the cold start inj.

thanks all thats helped alot, altough i decided to throw in a set of subaru p1 sensors i saw on ebay, measuring pre and post intercooler! i paid 40 quid which is quite high but atleast they are well wrapped in some heat resistant stuff and looks pretty easy to mount into my 3inch ally tubing, thanks once again your comments helped!
