Coolant bypass on throttle body?
ya its very easy to do just disconnect the 2 lines use the old clamps get a coupler and connect them together 15 min tops (counting the trip to advance auto parts) sry it's where i work, gotta repersent.
A coupler would be easiest but I just yanked the short hose out and connected the end of the long hose (still attached at the block) to where the short was attached (on engine). I used the existing clamps.
A little tougher to access the connection but it's cleaner

The intake manifold gets way hotter than 185 degrees, this from being bolted to a head that is bolted to a super hot turbo manifold. So if you guys suspect that coolant running through the TB will actually heat it up you are mistaking. The reason race cars eliminate this is purely due to having one less leak to possibly worry about, or because their bigger TB doesnt use coolant passages.
