my car doesnt have any throttle body coolant lines. its all electronic.

but my car doesnt breathe ambient temps. my toyota doesnt have anything like that either. never freezes. only cars ive seen with it are VR6’s and BMW’s… nothing like 190\* coolant in your TB to warm up the intake charge.

well… I seemed to have managed to blow up the motor in my teg. Shes smoking like a champ and knocking so Id say its seen better days. Now I have to figure out what went on it, then pull some money together and rebuild it. Maybe Ill see if I cant build it for boost now. But at least I have all winter to work on it.

exactly… i’ve bypassed mine on both my 3 series, 5 series, and vr6. never any issues, having a cai with hot coolant running through the t.b. is kind of an oxymoron. :idiots

+1 if you look, bmw did away with the whole setup later on, and actually like john said, you don’t even need to worry about until the ambient air temp is something like -50 outside. bmw also coats they’re throttle bodies with teflon, keeping less shit sticking to them in general. this is why you would use a teflon safe t.b./ carb cleaner. i deleted it not only for the performance aspect, but for cleanliness, and less things to possibly leak. its unnecessary.
