--did this today. It needed to be done. It'll work for now. I'm hoping to get better gas mileage compared to the rig I had before. :thinking: :goodjob:

Made from a piece of aluminum I had laying around and as you can see cx oem bracket. --and using the cx throttle cable.

Just wanted to share. Thoughts? Anyone else done something similar?

^^^yea, response is a lot better. I think I'm going to have to tinker with the rotor spring, though cause sometimes the throttle stays open a little bit--meaning it doesn't go back down to normal idle.

speaking of which, I have a skunk2 manifold with a gsr throttle body, do I have to change the damn throttle body to a B16 so I can use the p73 bracket and throttle cable? been tryin to do this for a minute now.

Thanks, guys.

Exactly what I was going to do--make it more shapely and round off the corners. I had to make quick work of it temporarily since it's my DD. :goodjob:
