Throttle body coolant hose bypass?, anyone done this? Options

[blu94gt]

So I was talking with a friend at work about cars, and we were talking about pulling my throttle body to clean it since I've had some issues lately, but he said while I have it off I should leave the coolant hoses that go to it disconnected and that will help reduce intake air temperature.

Any gains from doing this? Only thing I can find online is that it will cause problems during the winter, but even those reviews seem to be mixed.

I just did this with my 5S last weekend. All I did was purchase two hose clamps (almost typed "clams"), and a 5/16 barbed brass connector. Took off the coolant lines, threw the hose clamps on either (by that I mean both) side, inserted barb connector, and tightened hose clamps. You could use a 3/8 connector, but I found it to be a bit too tight (as I couldn't get the hose flush). Now you could hook up valves and what not, but it only takes about 10 min to swap it back and forth, so whats the need? Unless your that lazy I suppose.
But really it isn't that hard to do. And when the weather here starts getting rough I'll just put it all back together and wait till it warms up enough.
