nightwalker: I want to keep the stock setup with coolant running through the TB.. don't like the idea of having the plate seize due to overheating, especially with the stock egr system still running.
sparky: I thought my first post was clear enough. Coolant travels through the rubber tubes, which attach to the TB metal lines/pipes/tubes.

Okay. One hose come from the head... One comes from the waterpump feed pipe. Take the feed pipe hose and loop it over to the head pipe... This bypasses the tb. It does not effect idle... And the plate wont sieze do to overheating as mentioned on the previous page... The coolant lines heat the tb not cool it... Anywho. There is nothing else to block off and nothing else needs to be modified. Wont even need a tune... It doesnt effevt the tb perforamnce inany way other then allowing it to stay cooler... It extremely cold weather the plate may freeze under extremely long cruising periods. But if you floor it and allow the plate to snap shut it will free up. But thats only an issue in alaska... Hope ya'll enjoy... I heated the pipes on the tb and twisted them off... It gives a cleaner look.

And just because the coolant lines look the same on the TB's, doesn't indicate if it has a FIAV or not.
Also to those saying it a popular mod with DSM's, it is, but in conjunction with a FIAV blockoff plate.
