Now I do not know much about the AEM F/IC, but what you need is a translator of some sort; MAFT pro, HKS VPC, e-manage ultimate, etc. that will translate the signal from the MAP and IAT to a signal that the stock ECU can read as if it's using a AFM. If the device you are using is capable of a AFM delete or speed density then you will be good to go.
The MAP just runs off of a vacuum line, directly off the intake manifold gives you the most accurate readings. Then make sure your IAT is not going to be placed in an area where you will get a lot of heat soak, that will mess with your readings also.

Not necessarily MAFT pro, but a translator of some sort, although MAFT pro is one of the more popular choices, I'm not sure if your current piggy back has provisions for an AFM delete.... I've never messed with that unit before.
The MAP and the IAT are the sensors you will need.

The AIT and MAP may come with pigtails so you can continue the wiring to your controller. If they don't, you can buy them online. I'm running an AEM standalone and I just ran wires to the appropriate pins on the AEM (the unit came with the appropriate connectors and pins to plug in). I can't speak to the other options out there. You mentioned wanting to see a pic. Here's a pic of my MAP sensor installation. I fastened it to the ignitor bracket (note that I'm using a DH61 ignitor for sequential ignition). My AIT is located on the intercooler pipe that runs to the intake, probably a foot past the intercooler outlet which for me puts it about behind the passenger foglight.
