I was just thinking about putting the supercharger on. I have all these ideas/thought going through my head, and I have to wait until the spring to install it!

Anyways, I was thinking. With the throttle body relocated to the intake of the supercharger away from the exhaust manifold' is there any reason you would need to run the coolant lines to the throttle body? It seems to me that there would be better performance benifits to keeping the throttle body cooler than warmer.

Any thoughts?

You can bypass those lines right off the showroom for what its worth. Running coolant through the throttle body does nothing for it.
