Better to drill a hole in the filter's rubber boot and mount it there. I had mine routed into my brake ducts(completely sealed off from engine bay, with heat reflective foil) and it still soaked. I moved it into the boot on the right side intake and the soaking virtually went away.

That's what he's referring to.

CF tubes get HOT however there is air moving through the tubes which i would assume would cool the probe to the intake air temp...Man the traffic girl on CBS 2 in LA in the morning is hot:blabla:...Sorry watching the news and drinking coffee the AM here...

Hot on the outside. Not so much on the inside. CF is a crap conductor of heat.

The OEM location is also right after the air filter. It would make sense to mount the sensor in a similar location on aftermarket intakes.

Anyone know why this part is not listed for the M5? PN 13621739510

Because it's the thermisitor on the passenger side MAF sensor, not a separate sensor. Thats why we do relocation kits.
