Question:

Cold air intake be machined for auto?

I have a 2005 automatic Dodge Neon SXT. Now, I know that for automatic transmissions, there needs to be a hole fitting where the IAT sensor can sit, I was wondering if I can have a hole machined and the sensor fitted in there as I have a machine shop at my work and have good mechanics. I work at a print shop where the mechanics NEED to have a wide variety of fabricating skills to work on printing presses.

Answer:

no, your brakes aren't engaged while in park. however putting on the e-brake is a good safety measure, especially if the car has a manual transmission.
I have an idea, open the hood follow the air intake to the outlet, realize this is a a COLD AIR INTAKE now understand that the car flows maximum air already, a sewer pipe with an air filter, may increase .3 horsepower, from 3,500 rpm to 5000 rpm, with a turbo. If you have no turbo, I would keep the money in your pocket, if you run around town all day between 3,500 to 5,000 rpm, you will need an engine soon. this cold air intake is a marketing gimmick, on small engines, they are already producing max power, by trying to force more power, you can cause computer malfunctions, engine lights pop on, and you can lean out your motor, (which can then burn a hole in pistons.) magic 50 horsepower sooper dooper pooper scooper chips are another good way to ruin a good motor, good honest horsepower is more expensive the smaller the motor, that's why a lot of manufacturers use turbos, but you have to have a good strong motor to go with it, or you end up with some expensive fried auto parts, we would all love 100 extra horse power, but a chip and cold air intakes are expensive crap good luck hope you find a plan
+1000 Cold air intakes are way oversold
