I completed this DIY last night. Very easy. You have been repped

One thing that seemed to make this pretty easy was leaving the hose connected to the Water Outlet (C) and just rotating it around to the Heater Pipe (E) after disconnecting it from the passenger side TB. This avoids the most difficult part of the project, which is disconnecting the hose to the Water Outlet (C).

This mod is not going to translate into noticeable power or anything. I cleaned my TBs at the same time and did the throttle relearn procedure, which accounts for the noticeable difference I experienced.

I just posted in the other link, but that method looks to be a lot more complicated. I think Synolimit's suggestion of using hose #6 to complete the circuit is much easier. It requires removing fewer hoses and the most difficult one to get to is left connected - hose #6 at C. It does not require any modifying or fabricating of hoses. And it leaves the hard line at the back disconnected meaning fewer hot coolant lines in your engine bay.

Just leave hose #6 connected to C and connect the other end to E. Remove the other three hoses. Simple
