from the factory, gm routes hot coolant through the tb to keep it from freezing up in the winter. If you bypass this, it will keep the incoming air cooler, which means denser also, which=more power.

the coolant line doesent go through the throttle body....it runs adjacent the throttle body. and by bypassing this line. or re routing it...it wont heat up the throttle body

from what i've heard the gain is minimal. i think the MOST i've ever heard was 1 whole RWHP, but it can be done for like $1.39 or something i believe so its up to u whether you want to bother.
