Coolant is routed through the throttle body as a precaution for colder climates, so they do not freeze up due to huge volumes of icy air rushing through it.

The bypass "mod" reroutes this coolant, or "bypasses" the TB and keeps it at a slightly cooler temp so the incoming air does not heat up quite as quickly or as much.
