Where is the best location to mount the intake air temp sensor when boosting? In the intake manifold or the intake track before the throttle body? Also how will nitrous shots before the throttle body come into play with the air temp sensor operation and location?

It is always best to have the temp sensor in the manifold if at all possible.

WHY IS THE LOCATION OF TEMP SENSOR IN THE INTAKE MANIFOLD DIFFERENT THAN BEFORE THE THROTTLE BODY?

my instaler reccomended putting the air temp sensor in the piping before the intercooler....

You want your air temp sensor in the manifold because the closer the sensor is to the combustion chamber the more acurate the reading is going to be.
If you use nitrous and mount the air temp sensor before the nitrous jet your temp will be way off, nitrous cools the air temp. You could blow you engine doing this.
