Default Coolant Bypass From Intake Manifold

On my RACE ONLY ITR, I want to bypass the Intake manifold and heater (no more core!)

Anyone know what lines go where to achieve this?

Better yet, anyone know where I could find a water flow diag?

All Helms has is where to route the hoses.

wouldn't Hondata be able to guide you how to do this since their IM gasket used to specify this?

Is there anyway this can be used when the car is only in warm weather in an area like California or Arizona?

Yes. I wouldn't recommend doing this in cold weather areas.. besides, most people who have done this have reported zero power gains - dyno tested.
