I mean remove your TB from the IM. Pull on it a bit and the tubes will get taut. Then do what I said.

Or even better, just take ALL of the clamps off and CUT THE HOSES. Then you can remove the hose ends and replace the hose.

 

I was skimming Ebay and saw this: 97-07 Hyundai Tiburon Throttle Body Bypass Kit +8hp

Wow +8WHP lmao.gif These people should be punished mad.gif

By the way, I did this a long time ago, great DIY fing02.gif

 

^^ oh man, i hope noone gets suckered into this... Did you see the picture on the auction?



Hopefully this DIY prevents someone from buying the e-bay mod.

 

Do you guys recommend this mod to me? Livin in the netherlands

 

only do it if you live in a warmer dry environment. If you get black ice on the roads where you live more then a few times year, then it's probly not a good idea. Water in the air will form along the ridges of the throttle body and freeze with this modification if conditions are right. The idea is you're sacrificing the ability of the throttle body to heat up for decreased temperatures of the intake charge.

I have not done this modification because I plan on going back to Montana durring the winter time with my car.

After looking at this chart http://www.eurometeo.com/english/climate/c...n%20netherlands and the one that shows parcipitation, it looks like the coldest months are the most likely to rain where you live. It may not be a good idea.

 

Yep true, there are usually cold rainy days here in the winter..

I will let go this one then

Thanks anyway

 

What about a bbtb? will it have the same effect as the stock tb?

 

Can you clarify your question?

 

Pardon me for my English smile.gif

I meant.. Would it be a good idea to get a bbtb (without those coolant hose connections) for someone living in north europe?

(my question a couple of posts above was about the tb bypass mod, not about the bbtb install smile.gif )

 

Nothing wrong with getting a BBTB in a northern climate.
