I don't think they do. Just splice in some wire to the IAT sensor and tap a hole into the plastic in your intake tube.

The Trick Flow does not. You have to drill one. I forgot the size. They tell you in the instructions. They also supply you with a grommet to put in when you drill it. Go with the Trick Flow. Might require 2 minutes of more work, but I think it looks better.

My Trickflow elbow came predrilled with a hole. I just had to put the sensor in with the supplied piece.

I've had both (Trick Flow on now) and they both come w/ the IAT sensor hole. Trick Flow even has a grommet to ensure a snug fit. Hope this helps!

Yep, fortunately the Trick FLow has a hole for the IAT. Only thing you have to do is drill a hole for the Opti vent if your year has it. Gromets included for both holes.
