Ok.....
For all our search-impaired readers -
There is a coolant line that runs from the block to the drive-by-wire throttle body, and back. It is possible to get some ice buildup at the plate in certain conditions.
The bypass mod blocks off the flow of hot liquid, in hopes of keeping the intake charge a little cooler.

Fluid 4,
Are you referring to the mod which bypasses the coolant from the throttle body? You can refer to this link. It's in the DIY section. I've also done it on mine. Don't really feel much difference.

There is also a DIY for the oil catch can here https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=100635
That goes between the line from the engine oil fill tube and the intake.
The throttle body bypass mod, eliminates the coolant that runs through the throttle body.
