Hello

if you can tell me the part number of the sensor I can dig this out for you.

the number should be embossed on the side of the sensor and you may have to remove the sensor from the tube to access this

I'm assuming that you want to know what wire is the temp input so you can fit a tuning device?

Customer replied 247 days and 9 hours ago.

Yes and it saying that I need to find the oat sensor wire. In the housing the only numbers I see are 1-5.

hello

the part number will be embossed on the sensor body beginning with 0280

but typically its the middle no.3 wire on these

These tuning devices work by offsetting the air temperature signal into the ECU to fool it into adding more fuel
however unless there's more air coming in all you'll do is run rich and waste fuel with no power gain - so to be honest I'd steer clear of using them and fit a decent air filter and exhaust if you want to release some power
