Default Adding throttle linkage?

Any idea how this could be done and how much it would cost? I think its the correct term, but what I mean by throttle linkage is the ability to rev it like that of an older carbuerated engine (or even a 98 mustang)

I love to see that setup.
That fly by wire crap is just nota benefit from technology IMO.

Agreed.

I'm not telling any of you why I wanted to know. You'll just have to see in a few months. [8D]

i would be guessing that you would like to try to put a butterfly flapper in your scoop. It would probably be really hard to do.

Hi

Per above post, if you want the flapper to open? Try a 12volt solenoid and switch ! Cheap and works great.
