No problem. You should notice that the engine doesn't lose as much HP after it warms up now too. That effect is even more pronounced after more cooling modifications.

I can't get the ******y coolant lines off either end! They're stuck on both the TB and where it originates from. Any suggestions on how to get the lines off the nipples? (yes, I did remove those clamps...)

Little bit of WD-40...or cut them off and get new ones.

WD-40, then you can take a flat blade screwdriver and work it inside the line to loosen it up.

Neither of the above. It's actually pretty easy. Stretch them out just a bit, get a pair of slipjaw pliers, and twist the rubber around the nipple a bit. Should break loose.

The other problem was just trying to get in there at it!! I didn't take off the TB, just my CAI going into it, and it was sooo hard to even get at the clamps! Redz, what do you mean stretch them out a bit? Do you mean after they're off to get them back on?
Thanks for all the advice guys!
