bypassed coolant

I just bypassed my throttle body coolant. I was wondering if I should bypass the coolant that goes to the traction control as well. Thanks

There is no colant that goes to the TCS system. Are you talking abou the Coolant that goes to the Warmer on the tranny? Leave that

thanks for your info. I drove my car last night. It was around a 100 degrees after driving it I felt the throttle body and noticed it was cooler. Still it is not an modification were you can feel the diference. I also did outlaws spacers a month ago. Does anyone know any other mods to keep the temp inside my manifold cooler? I heard that taking of the plastic cover on the upper manifold can help as well.

they are like gaskets that dont conduct heat that go between certain parts to help keep heat away from parts of the engine that could reduce hp

It also prevents parts that work together from warping against each other
