never heard of it[the iat chip?],doesn't sound too swift,but ok.
the fog lamp bulb you get from underneath the car.remove the lower close out panel,and pop the bulb in/out,just don't touch the glass part of the bulb,the oils from your hand will kill the bulb.

Yes, leave the stock IAT sensor alone; no "free" horsepower there. Buy a cold air intake to get real gains; Vararam, etc.
