        I plan on using the GM one too. It seems to be the sensor of choice.

              i don't know that, but google probably does.

              Is this is an option on our cars?

                yes you just have to know what the resistance/temperature curve looks like for the stock sensor

                people use the stock E30 coolant sensor all the time. it's actually not that much different from the GM sensor.

                  Until I get my intake done, I'm actually using the sensor built into the AFM. Eventually it will have the GM open-element in it, though.

                    Danny, you can literally CLIP and pocket and GM sensor from any car that has one.

                      I use the GM open element one, back when my car was normally aspirated I just stuffed the sensor in the rain tray ( not in the intake tract at all ) it works just fine like that.
