Removing thermostat - pro's and con's

[beeza]

What do U guys think of the 'coolant by-pass mod' on the Throttle body?

I did this and had it like this for 2 years,I can't say I noticed a difference.
I had problems with all of the sensors on the TB and eneded up replacing them all 1 by 1,each time I did the car improved.I way wondering if this mod may have caused heating problems in the TB?
My car has 100,000km on it now.It had 60,000 when I did the mod.

Was just about to say that too.

Coolant passed through the TB is only there to stop the butterfly sticking/freezing in cold cold weather. Just imagine cruising on the Hwy and your TB sticks open when you take your foot off the pedel. Maybe its usefull in the southern states. But I have never had any problems in Qld.

I have disconnected mine to the TB and those water lines are now running to my turbo. Such a quick and easy job and killed to birds with one stone.
