Cooler Throttlebody
Today I took the 2 coolant hoses off the throttlebody and spliced them together. This will lower the temp of the throttlebody. The air entering the engine will be a bit cooler now.
I'll update this thread after a while to let you know if I notice any improvements in 1) MPG increase/decrease...2) more HP/torque feeling.

One day update
After driving the car for 10 miles, I pulled over and popped the hood. I could easily touch the throttlebody. It was not hot, just a little warm. I could also touch the intake manifold.
So the air going in is keeping it cooler. I'll post back after awhile.
