Tighten Throttle Cable
Pulled my Nitrous off today (had to pull TB off) and now my accelerator pedal has a lot of play in it, i assume i need to tighten the throttle cable....can some one give me detailed instructions on how to tighten up the throttle cable. Also, with it not being fully tightened, I am not getting 100% throttle when i go full throttle, correct??

slack in the pedal is normal....
To check the 100% throttle.. have someone sit in the car with it turned off, and someone else watch the arm on the TB. Have them step on the pedal as far as it goes, as long as the arm is hitting the stop you're at 100% throttle.
If you still require to adjust your cable, it's not possible with a factory cable, you must upgrade to a Lokar unit...
