Default Throttle cable?

Blah, I'm probably making to many threads, but I just walked out of work, I like comming here. It's comforting. Anyway, to say the least I've never felt the power of my car beyond 1/3rd open throttle because my LX throttle cable doesn't line up with the b16 throttle bracket. So there's the answer to the whole why the hell isn't my motor fast question. What can I do to ya know, get it tentioned and shit. I went to autozone asked if they had anything throttle cables for any b series engine and they didn't the process took like 20 minutes haha. So what can I do? h:

i guess since you have a EG8 you can probebly order a throttle cable from a JDM EG9. you would probebly have to order from either a USA honda dealer or if they wont order them you can probebly order from a Japanese or European honda dealer.

I just read a DIY of how to tension your throttle cable, but I can't remember where I found it. Another board, undoubtedly.

Right, my problem is I got a b16 intake with a d15 throttle cable, it doesn't line up with the bracket.
