That means I can use the IAT at the intake tube or extend the wires to the IAT2 behind the blower? So I actually dont need the IAT at the intake?

About the knock sensors, so I have to grind them or?

I'm not sure, if I should do the swap by myself or bring it to the car shop. They want about 2500Euro incl. DynoTune. How complicated is to do the swap? I'm not a mechanic, but its not so that I'm a complete noob. I replaced many things by myself like the complate intake manifold, radiator, CAI. But a eaton swap I a level higher I think.

thanks for your help
Knock sensors have to be ground off, same as the mach 1. You do not need the iat at the intake. Post blower temps are more important.

Holy smoke, they are making a killing off you. What's it hurt to try yourself? It can be done, just take your time. It's just putting a ~70 pc puzzle together, but on your car.
