things not to do to your lude:
1. no neutral dropping
2. no neutral dropping
3. no neutral dropping
4. no excessive dry revving (its not good when the engine isnt under load)

I have one, got it from WeaponR, they're pricks...the throttle rotor add on changes the degree of pull for the cable...tightening your throttle cable has nothing to do with the degree...and for peeps that don't know how to tighten, don't do it

Never neutral dropped... only occasional "dry revving" gotta show the peeps the power of a Lude. :fawk:

Default floor

Hmm, I am wondering if there is any difference when you push the pedal to the floor after you tightened it? Will it go an little bit more than otherwise?

pedal throw is the same, but it is more jumpy
when i tightened mine, i only have to rest my foot to get to 2500 rpms

but then again ive got an h22a1 now
when i had an h23a1, the stock throttle resonse was noticeably slower than the stock h22a1

also i big noticable difference with the throttle rotor by Weapon-R..........The WR Throttle Rotor is Computer Designed to reduce the turning ratio of your throttle body rotor, to increase throttle response and reduce the time it takes your car to get to FULL THROTTLE by 50%.

a lot of things other than the throttle rotor also determine how long your car gets to full throttle
the throttle rotor is really just the position of the gas pedal

most notably is rotating mass, your balance shafts play a big roll in throttle response, as well as the flywheel and pulleys attached to the crankshaft

air restriction also plays a part on intake and exhaust
