should be a pretty simple install. although for those who haven't done it before, it might seem complicated.
the throttle body you have no longer utilizes the coolant lines.
therefore you simeple bypass the lines from entering into the throttle body.(only thing you should have hooked up to the throttle body is the throttle cable, map sensor, tps sener)
------------------------------------------------------
now your problem probably lies with the ends of 2 hoses. simply connect those 2 end together via and lil plastic pipe at the hardware store. or you can avoid that by buying a longer line to simple replace both lines.

Re: (gsrious)
yes that is what i was curious about. when you say bypass do you mean route to another coolant line, or just plug up? cause there is a line from the iacv and off the intake manifold. or should i attach a new hose form there to there? im using a skunk2 IM btw

Re: (crx378)
You bypass it...
The way it is now, I believe, Is a line from the manifold to the throttle body, then out the throttle body, to a little 90 degree fitting onthe engine.
Instead of bs'ing with the throttle body, you just go straight fromt he line from the manifold, to the 90degree on the block.
Hope that answers the question..
I may not be exactly correct on the placement of the coolant lines, but where they come form really isnt important, all you need to remmeber is that the line leading to the throttle body just goes straight to place where the coolant line coming from the tb connects to.
Hopefully that isnt too confusing
