then I could measure the effects of a CAI system, possibly alky/water injection, a 2.75" pulley, etc etc

I am not sure what signal is sent from the sensor....I believe that the PCM takes it and translates that into a reading. You can monitor that via EFI live or ATap.

I was hoping for a CDT gauge, probably just an electrical signal, but then I could fry something...

Brian, I am 99% sure that is after the intercooler. It's in the same chamber as the air getting cramed into the motor.

My guess is it would be a standard thermistor, resistor type.

There it is Flyer; pretty small huh. Just having an intercooler does tons of benefits though. A bigger one is just better for more heat transfering surface area. This is also accounting that you will not have much boost drop with a larger one.
Here is a lot more info about the Magnacharger stuff.
