To anyone who is familiar with bypassing the heater hoses running to the intake plenum just behind the throttle body...
would running cool water through there be a terrible idea? I live in a fairly warm climate, and it wouldn't be to difficult to switch between warm coolant and cold coolant either way.
i have a small oil cooler and with a 12v pump and a small homemade reservoir it could have its own cooling circuit.
the plenum gets pretty hot right now, just quite to hot to hold your hand on, but touchable w/o consequence.
