Taking coolant for turbo from throttle body bypass

[Vertigo]

Sup. Ive taken my throttle body coolant lines off to direct them to my turbo instead. Now getting high idle. What needs to be done to address this? Don't care about having idle varying with temp, so long as it drops down to a manageable level around 1000 RPM.

High idle will be from the thermostatic idle valve. You could re plumb so the turbo is in series on the down stream side of it. Then it should work as factory. Or you could change the throttle body for a 3sge unit which has a electric idle control valve. You also get a bigger throttle body if you do that and it bolts on. Might have to make a gasket to stop the idle port from having a vacuum leak depending on what you get it from.

Yep, thats worth thinking about. Cheers!

Ended up making a block off plate (actually, found one on a spare throttle body), works a treat and is easy to do.
