throttle body bypass. coolant is run thru the throttle body. its mainly to help heat the throttle body linkage in cold environments to prevent sticking. but it REALLY heats up the incoming air charge alot! think about it, TPI motors run HOT as is with 195 degree Tstats, and fans turning on at near 220 degrees. that hot coolant really heats up the incoming air thru the TB, and that robs power.

simple rerouting the coolant line, bypassin the Tb will keep your TB and plenum cooler while the car is running... so that keeps incoming air cooler.....



How do you relocate it..Does anyone have a pic..
