It accomplishes this with a bi-metal strip. This is a stand-alone assembly. It can be found by the firewall below or behind the intake manifold.
Soo how could a guy go about hooking this up to a ve to help with cold starts? ve throttle is not an option. Maybe just Y off the iacv hose to one side then maybe hook it to a nipple on the plenum? Do you know what pin on the ECU it uses? I could maybe set haltech up to utilize it..
