Why delete the throttle body heater?? Is it not necessary??
I'm in the middle of my m52 swap right now and my ti is going to be a track car. Plus I live in SoCal. I want to delete and simplify as much stuff as possible. If the throttle body heater lines are not necessary then that's TWO water lines I could get rid of and not have to worry about leaking!!
I'm guessing these lines help to heat up the throttle body/inlet air temp quicker when it's cold??? Since I live in SoCal and it NEVER technically gets cold here, I should be able to delete it with no issues right?
