I heard great things about relocating ur IAT. I just am not exactly sure what it looks like and what to use to plug up the hole it is in now. I have the 98 3.9l. Also will this still work well with a JET chip.. Thank you for any help

I dont think you should do both. I think you may harm your truck or it may turn out to be counterproductive. The jet chip will advance your timing and so does having the IAT read a cooler temp. I would say relocate the IAT and keep your money and steer clear of the JEt.

The Jet Chip does the same thing as relocating
your IAT it changes the reading about 20 to 30
degrees and plays with the TPS.

This is how they get the timing advance.

They do give you a 1 to 2 mpg increase and help
throttle response. But there is no big performance
gain. I would say 5 to 10 HP not the 21 they
advertise.

They do help a little, I bought one before I got
an ASE Chip.

I seen 2 dyno tests on the V6 with the ASE and
on a stock vehicle 15 to 17 hp gain.

Now running a 92 mopar performance PCM on my 95

The IAT is located in the #2 runner of the intake
manifold.

Pasenger side right in front of the cable brackit
in the manifold. Be sure you plug the hole you
take it out of with a 1/4 NPT pipe plug.

Yes you can do it with the jet chip as long as it
is not below 50 degree's out side or you risk
getting a code for Intake air temp. sensor
voltage high

It will also run on the rich side.
