Would I benefit from tricking the IAT when spraying?

since the IAT won't see the colder air (nozzles are in the TB plate), it will be seeing a LOT warmer air then what the engine is actually being fed.

Should I trick the IAT with a resistor? I could set up a mod box for it so that it only gets the flase reading when the nitrous solenoid is open.

Or would that be counterproductive and possibly dangerous if it were to advance the timing based on the cooler readings?

What would be a cool idea would be to just relocate the IAT behind the MAF, it would still work perfect beucase the air temp dosent change much from when it enters the filter to when it passes the MAF. So i think that would be your best bet, just relocate it behind the MAF

You don't want to "trick" the IAT sensor... it isn't going to accomplish anything. The MAF sensor is measuring the air flow, the PCM is adding the fuel to go with the air flow, and the nitrous system is providing the fuel and nitrous for that part of the equation. "Tricking" the IAT sensor doesn't accomplish anything with an NA setup, so I'm not sure what you would be trying to achieve with a nitrous setup.
