our tb heated?

are the tb's in our cars heated? if they are heated has anyone tried to do a bypass so the fuel holds a denser charge?

some of the guys at my work have for 3.0 L engines in their trucks and vans and were talking about that. they do it so the fuel doesnt freeze or something like that, but bypassing it gives the fuel a denser charge and which is supposed to increse performance and fuel economy.

just curious.



Injection is nice but id rather be BLOWN!

The older V6 ones are but not the new 4cyl ones.



I used to race cars, now I race myself.

it isn't vacum lines its coolant lines, thats how it heats it, vacuum wouldn't heat it.
