Mattman, I did it on my 03 Auto and it made a huge difference! With a little power braking, you'll spin all the way through 1st, or at least slide a little into 2nd. Prolly depends on the road condition too, but it's free and you'll definitely feel it.

I just did this. Worked great, but the tubing I used was so stiff that it was a bit of a pain sliding it onto the cable.

I used 3/8 inch plumbing tubing and zip ties. [sm=icon_cheers.gif]

Guys, I just did this mod 20 minutes ago. Wow, it's like night and day. I spun out reversing out of my drive way. lol. I strongly advise doing this. It only costs about 3 bucks. I used a 1/4 inch rubber gas line and (2) 1/2 inch clamps. That's it. It took me and a way taller friend of mine about 20 minutes to do it. I got up under there and he held the gas pedal back so it'd be a little easier. Very very awesome mod. I strongly recommend it. Awesome throttle response!

I'm happy in my pants now! [8D]

Arent you still getting the same power as before? It just feels faster because your foot is use to pressing at the floor...and how did anyone fit under the wheel. I can never find the right position

Winner99, of course I'm getting the same power because it's not a power mod. But, the throttle response is different because the slack is taken out. It's a great mod
