Iac

after messing with my new king TB i was noticing the spot where the IAC valve draws in additional air during cold start and was wondering if there would be any benefit to making the valve stay open all the time...adding extra air to the intake? and btw i never knew how much draw there was just at idle. i put my hand over the TB making a seal and it wanted to pull my hand in the engine...i was as surprised as the time i touched my headers just after starting the car
