You can put a resister in between the two pins of the connector and it will simulate a lower volteage fooling the ECM into thining it is a certain temperature. I dont remember what ohm resistors trick it into which temp range though. Sorry

Not really. I ended up putting the IAT back in just so the puter can make a more accurate a/f ratio depending on temp. Also I moved mine behind the fog light in my RS.
