Default LQ4 wire to cable conversion for throttle needed

I need to convert the wire to the throttle body to be a cable. Could I just put a ls1 throttle and have it work? I would like to know what is the way I can have a cable on the LQ4. Thanks.

A lot would depend on the on the year, etc.
You need to switch the throttle body for a cable,
Add the IAC, and TPS wiring to the harness,
Have the PCM flashed with a DBC OS, not all DBW PCM's can be flashed to DBC, since they don't have IAC drivers in them

It's out of a 2006 Sierra. Could I use a LS1 PCM?

Thanks! So what's the deal with the colors then, if it's gray I can't use the LS1 PCM or something?

You could send me your PCM and I will get you the right PCm for the job. If it is an LQ4, it is more than likely a 24x. If it is grey, you will not be able to run cable as there are no IAC motor drivers in any of the 58x controllers.

If you are getting just a base cal, it will be $185.99. We have 36" Lokar LS1 cables for $55.

There are probably some other things that you need. Give me a call and I will get a complete list together.
