Question HSR Swap with stock Throttle Body.

Hello,

With the original TPI setup, there was a small, U-shaped hose that went from the intake manifold into the bottom of the Throttle Body.

* Question: Do I need to run something to this for an HSR swap? I have seen other guys pics, where they have left this port on the Throttle Body open, not plugged or connected to anything.

Please share your response. THANKS GUYS!

No
was for coolant to heat TB up to prevent blades from freezing up in cold weather.
Is 1st thing most delete; even with stock intakes

While you have everything apart do it properly; cut off the redundant coolant part just leaving the IAC valve housing
