I assume that you are talking about the TB coolant lines. They share the metal piece that the vacuum line uses to. Usually the company that you buy the intake from will include directions and hoses to hok this line back up. But in your case it sounds like they didn't.....so anyway back to the point:

You can remove the coolant hose that runs to the TB but it will spill some coolant. So either have a friend handy to put a finger over the hole until you hook it back up or have something that can plug it up until you hook it back up to the TB or run it to the other hose and bypass the TB completely HTH

remove the coolant lines that run through to the bottom of the throttle body from the engine, and the lines that run out of the throttle body to the water pump. Replace them with one hose that leads directly to one another, and you're done. It will take your car a little longer to warm up to operating temp, but your intake charge will be significantly cooler. This mod is not recommended if you live in climates where temperatures drop below 20 degrees, as your ECU will throw a fit, making the idle jumpy, and undrivable until it warms up.
