MD Copper Iso Thermal upgrade with Aramid gasket and Copper Throttle Body Heater

Okay I just got the MREV plus and wonder if the above mentioned accessory comes with the MREV plus package.
If not, what does the MD Copper Iso Thermal upgrade with Aramid gasket and Copper Throttle Body Heater do?

Copper throttle body keeps the throttle body warm at all times to keep it from "sticking" when it gets cold. They say it helps in extreme cold weather conditions.

I just got the Copper ISO Thermal Mrev Plus which came with the copper throttle body heater not too long ago. At first I was reluctant because we do not have "extremely" cold weather here but occasionally we do have cold days and nights. The non-copper one has to be adjusted according to ambient temperature so that just seemed like a PITA. Copper one is for convenience.

Mine is the Copper ISO Thermal MREV Plus.. so that means I don't need the extra accessory thingy?

nope. yours comes with everything already as a package.

The upgrade you are talking about is for people who just order the spacer or for the people that have already ordered the spacer before the other stuff was available.

Hate to revive an old thread but,

would there be any issues with the weather getting prett hot and using the throttle body cooler?

I'm in NC and there are some pretty warm days, and pretty chilly days here.
