Whacked, ehh?  I'm going to experiment with something
like this after I get the car running again, hopefully
this weekend.  Javad found me a 12v auxillary air
valve in a junkyard off a bimmer that I'm going to
wire to a ~100 degree thermoswitch that will close it
once the engine warms up.  I'll let everyone know what happens.
