now, i know there is 2 coolant hoses coming out of the coolant rail that lead into the TB and run coolant through the TB to warm it up in a circulation type of way.

anyways what i was wondering was.... if i were to plug up all 4 of these holes, and just basically not allow coolant to go through my TB, i wouldnt be hurting anything would i?

i know it would basically be like a carbuerator, and run "sh1tty until warmed up" as some people would say.

but the only reason that coolant loop into the TB is there, is for the TB to be warm on cold start ups right? and seeing as how summer is around, there wont really be any cold starts, and i also park in my garage, so in the mornings its a relative room temperature in the garage. so i think i would be safe right? opinions on this would be appreciated. opc1:
