VMP S/C Installed- Intake Question

I just wrapped up install of my kit and am starting the datalogging process. The question I have is where does the intake temp reading come from? I am concerned because I took a fair amount of time to get my intercooler system primed before I finally got circulation as soon as the pump was running, and because the only intake temp reading I can see on my SCT BDX is leveling off around 190F. Just to clarify, I am NOT talking about Intake Air Temp, or OAT.

Well I'm assuming the sensor I'm reading is either after it's gone through the intake or it's tied to the normal coolant system. Car is running fine, albeit with a LOT less traction now when I put the foot down.

There is a sensor in the intake manifold that shows up as iat2 on a roush strategy or vmp tune. PBD uses it a different way and hooks it to maf and then it shows up as iat. It should show ambient before you start the car and 30-50 degrees above ambient while driving
