Default TB Coolant bypass for an Accent

Are there any DIY's or info on doing this to an Accent? I know tib owners do it, but wondering if its beneficial for us Accent peeps to do it too.

If the Accent has a TB heater, then yea you could do it. Not really much of a gain, but the process would be the same. Just loop the hoses back to each other.

Yeah, I fully removed one hose, and hooked the second hose around. It took about 5 minutes.
