Ah Ha! I forgout about that one!
not my car, but I mounted cazwrx’s snows for him :banana
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.
gonna take it out tonight while the weather still isnt too bad…
put 200 miles on it :excited
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.
it wont happen unless ya live in the arctic circle when its always damp out a lot of cars have them but its not to hot for a performance car inhalin air heated by coolant thats hot
that h22 integra?
b20 vtec. Its Vinay’s old car… Might just buy shape’s ls/vtec and build that for boost… idk gotta see how things go.
got the suspension in yesterday. loving the ride, and the drop. :cool
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.
oh we will… and i will post some pics. it got all freakin dirty yesterday, driving in and out of o.j.'s yard with all the damn mud!! give me a ring, or i’ll call you in a bit.
i made the dent under my taillight disappear :confused
I saw you getting gas yesterday Dave. I gave ya a beep
repaced intake gaskets ,polished up intake mani,TB,and put on a new CAI
well shit let’s do it on my car :rofl
I h8 sno
Uh oh, they changed the forecast. Instead of all rain we’re supposed to see snow and ice!!!
:banana
Might want to put my blizzaks on after all…
:excited Where did you see this? :shifty
correction:
I h8 sno when my car isn’t put away and my winter beater isn’t running.
