Throttle Body Coolent By-Pass
 

Does anyone have the free-version directions?

I had a picture with really crappy directions.

it's a waste of time...but if you must...connect the two hoses going to the throttle body together...done

dont even bother with this mod. its useless

sure its useless, but doesnt hurt either.

I dont know what picture you used, but heres shoebox's pic instructions.

it doesnt hurt until the TB is frozen and cant warm up cuz there is no coolant going through it in our zero degree winters

ive done it on geez 4 or 5 cars now with no problems ;) considering aluminum heats up rather quickly it will pass from his intake manifold to his TB in a matter of minutes.

If we found ourselves driving in Siberia for extended periods of time, we might freeze up the throttlebody. I'm looking into this myself, although since it's all built in to my TB I have to buy a little block off plate. Every little mod adds up to fast cars, IMO.

Alex, here's your chance to shut me up :lol:... do it yourself, get your hands dirty! :D

yeah, those damn L36's have it all built in, i think ZZP has a throttle body plug...i doubt yours is the same though G.

Well, i was right :lol:

L36 TB Coolant Plug

The Easy Performance coolant plugs works by blocking the coolant passage in your TB. This keeps the throttle body cooler which increases horsepower. The product Only works on the L36 motor and will not work on the Fbody.

I did the TB bypass on my GTA. no noticeable difference at all. Track times were identical. 14.5 before and 14.5 after. trap speed was the same too. at least it only takes a few minutes to do, otherwise I would have been pissed that I wasted my time. :lol:

its still gay. Â*perfectly good waste of a hose. save yourself 10 minuets, dont do this mod, and go watch the new jessica simpson video from dukes of hazzard twice. time would be better spent that way than doing this mod.

the throttle body wouldn't freeze up. if it were a TBI setup, then it might, but it's not.

it's a useless mod though.

It's a terrific mod if you add one more step to the instructions.....when you get done with the last step, install a blower!

actually, it probably could freeze up. a little condensation and a chilly morning go a long way. :wink:
