On the TB Bypass...

How cold does it have to get before it causes a problem?

Freezing cold to actually build up ice on the throttle body to stick. Other than that you should be ok.

You'll be fine. There are people in Michigan and Canada ive talked to that have their TB bypassed and have never had problems in the winter. It would have to get unbelievably cold and you'd have to have some liquid on the TB for it to freeze. Since your not running coolant through the TB there should be no liquid in there and coolant shouldnt freeze.
