Default problems with throttle body bypass

has anyone had problems with this mod i got to class today and luckily popped my hood to look at somethin else and a pinhole in the hose had came out of nowhere and was sprayin coolant everywhere...i don't kno how this happened is the bypass creating more backpressure or what?

There is zero need or gain associated with this mod. And it removes something that prevents icing in the tb when temps are low outside. Just put it back to stock and you will be much better off.

Sounds to me like you just have a bad or damaged piece of hose. But again, I would just put it back stock.
