OK, stop inventing an acronym "MAT" right here. It's either IAT or ACT. OEM's call it IAT whether it's n/a or forced induction. The problem that needs solving is how to move the IAT sensor to the right place, after the supercharger. Shouldn't be a problem for some of experienced tuners. Then the IAT-related strategies in the ECU can work properly (e.g. spark retard vs. IAT, which is crucial).

I would be very surprised if there wasn't an off-the-shelf ntc air temp sensor with a similar linearisation curve to the one built into the MAF sensor. You will want an open-element one, not solid, for faster response. Just a case of finding somewhere suitable in the plenum to mount it and patch it into the wiring loom/harness.

Let's not bodge stuff chaps!
