Is the Intake Air Temp. Sensor Needed?

I bought a intake manifold from Hellmann and it doesn't have a hole for the intake temp sensor in the base plate.

Does the intake air temp sensor do anything more than trigger the grid heaters to cycle when it is cold? I'm not running the grid heaters, so if this is the sole reason for the sensor, then I won't even bother drilling and tapping a hole in the new manifold.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
