There are two lines running into the throttle body from the cooling system. The primary purpose is to keep the tb from feezing in cold climates. For those of us who live where it never gets below feezing this is ****ing pointless. Every 10 degrees colder the air into your engine is a 1% increase in power is obtained. Knowing this engine theory I routed the hose with coolant flowing out of the motor to a small transmission cooler in the front bumper (using the force of the water pump) with an electric fan for cooling, then sent the coolant back to the tb then back into the motor. These little 3 hp mods you dont really notice but every little bit helps right? Total cost was 35 clams. I removed my washer pump and tank because the pump went out on me and I clean the windsheild often so I had plenty of room to put the cooler. It can be purchased at any auto zone and the fan from radio shack.
