Copper Tube Plumbing
Can anyone explain the intent of this copper tube at front of plenum? Home Depot performance modification?

Re: Copper Tube Plumbing
Throttle body coolant bypass modification.
Best option is to bypass the entire upper plenum.

YW.
That is not how the bypass is suppose to look. Should be a lot cleaner with the coolant lines blocked off at the plenum.

Re: Copper Tube Plumbing
I don?t know. The addition of copper tubing adds a bit of bling to the engine. Maybe you need to add a bit more. Could be a new trend.
