Default Cable to throttle body

Am I the only one daydreaming about how to run a cable from the gas pedal to the throttle body? Just wondering!

buy a SCT2 tuner andget a tune from B a m a C h i p s and you won't have to dream about a cable.

I'm confused. There is no cable from the pedal to the TB.

Thats what hes saying.... that he wants the car to be drive by cable not drive by wire. It wont work anyways.

Yes I agree with that but I also agree that with my B ama CAI and tune its pretty damn good. Yes I agree that with the wire method when its wide open it just screams up with no variations like the computer has. And there would be no lag whatsoever. But its just not something that I feel is worth looking into is all.
