wouldn't the lack of temperature sensor make the check engine light stay on? anyone know how to get around that?

Are you sure it is even a temp sensor.
If your talking about the oval metal piece on the box, I thinkn that was there as a mounting bracket used to mount the ign amp. If you look at the new evo intake or even the PES T28 kit which uses a metal intake tube with a filter on it, they both end up just mounting the ign amp to the top on a bracket.

Here are a few links of the EVO intake since I am not sure if you have a 1.8 or 2.8
<a href="http://www.evoms.com/a%20a4%2018%20%20intake%20pic.htm">1.8t intake</a>
<a href="http://www.evoms.com/a%20a4%2028%20intake%20pic%20page.htm">2.8 intake</a>
Notice the new plate just sits on top of the intake tube to hold what was on the old plate on the stock box.
