    ^^throttle body bypass kit.... would this work? in theory i could see it cooling off the engine, but would it really get the power they are claiming?


    Anybody want an F20c swap?

    I dunno, seems kinda fishy to me, but I have no experience with coolant bypass devices.

    From my understanding there is supposed to be coolant in the TB, and there could be consequences of if you take that coolant away.

    These were popular on Mustangs and TransAms. It is not really an issue in the south. It is mainly for emissions that it is there in the first place. There have been some documented gains, not sure on imports, but it worked on the TransAm.

    bigger gains on bigger engines. 4cyls maybe like 1-2hp, then scaled up. not really worth it
