Throttle body bypass?

Searched and only found one reply. Is it really worth doing? I live in TN and it does get cold sometimes..

Guess Ill do it tomorrow. Just didnt know if it was worth the hassel. I also wrapped my fuel lines with heat tape r11 rating. Figured it couldnt hurt while I was there.

I didn't notice a difference, but I guess it's for bragging rights. Also, the fuel line's couldn't hurt either, but we have a returnless fuel system, so that in itself is the most beneficial in that area. But what you did can't hurt.

You are talking about the coolant line, correct? Just making sure since you didn't mention it.

I just did the TB BYPASS and I was talking about what I thought were fuel lines that I wrapped, I also wrapped the ac lines then covered with yellow wrapping as thats my engine theme.

So, you never answered my question. You're referring to the COOLANT bypass, correct?

BTW, just curious, where did you get your crank and alt pulley from? What is the difference between the ones you ordered and the stock units? I was not aware that they made alt pulleys for FWDVQ35's.

http://www.cosmoracing.com/productlist.asp?cid=199 is where I got the crank pulley from, the alt Im not sure about but since you know most everything it was for a 350z but was told it would work. I was told it wouldnt work but I looked at both and dont seee why. I guess youll educate me? AS far as what I was talking about I wrapped with insulated tape the ac lines and what I thought where the fuel lines. I was then asking if I should do the coolant line that I just disconnected from the TB.
