Default throttle coolant bypass on ym XG

I'm trying to do a TCB On My XG But I Don't Know Much about performing it,

all i know is that hyundai decided to keep the throttle body heated so it would't stick or freeze during the cold weather........like Canada,

I'll post a pic of my engine bay so someone take it and someone some pointers,

Forgive my ignorance, but I'm curious now; what is to be gained by doing a TCB?

it's supposed to stop the throttle body from being heated i guess..Everytime cold air is sucked up to the airbox it all enter's the engine By being Warm air thank's to the Throttle Body,

If one were to perform the TCB it would be great in the warm seasons but what about winter, would it have to be reconnected to allow it be warmed.

TK-

I wouldn't really recommend doing this. The gains are not worth the work. Sure it doesn't take that much to do it, but you may get like 1hp out of it...if that.:dead:
