TB by-pass in cold climate?
As anyone done the TB by-pass proceedure on a car in a cold climate? I was going to do this mod when I lived in Florida (no brainer)...now I live in West Virginia.

Your TB will still run around 100 degrees or more, it shouldn't be a problem. Now if you lived in Alaska or so, maybe then it could be a problem. I don't know anybody who has had their throttle body ice over from running the bypass.

Did you buy the kit or do it with miscellaneous hose fittings?
