Default Throttlebody bypass question.

When you do the typical throttlebody bypass, you connect the two coolant lines that go to the throttle body. Simple.

Is there a way to delete those two lines to reduce clutter without having a negative effect on the cooling system?

alternator?

you mean throttle body?

can't really remove the lines, i don't think. what i did was run the line straight forward and along the radiator shroud. keeping it nice and tucked up against it for cleaner looks.

Just leave it stock, there is no performance gain by doing this.
