Hey, I am in the same boat, I haven't really looked at it entirely, but I remember someone a while back using a GS400 cable setup, IIRC. Then proceeded to make the drive by wire TB work with some mods. I don't remember off the top of my head who or where to find the thread, but I'm getting tired of this lazy throttle, and I'm even more tired of trying to buy piggybacks to trick my car into thinking it's faster. One rule of eBay, you get what you pay for, you buy cheap you drive cheap.
