    All right, I bought one of those chips that hooks up in the IAT sensor. I have an '01 V6. As I was looking at the wiring diagram I noticed the IAT is wired into my MAF. Can I splice into the wire to the IAT, and the signal return line? The IAT and the MAF share the same return wire. Will this affect anything. Or should I just shoot myself in the foot for being stupid?

    Throw it away. They give power, but the effects are detrimental to the health of your engine.
