** go through my build thread around where I bought my TODA big throttle body, it will show the pipes for the radiator hosing, just don't connect those up.

UPDATE: Found it

Just install the TB like that...WITHOUT hooking up those two connectors. Easy done. One of the hoses *should* be long enough to plug it back into the radiator system.
