I've been wondering the same. You can use the efi cable from a fox. Or get the lokar one.
I'm gonna get the black lokar one from jegs.

The Lokar cable worked for me. It comes in lengths up to around 72". Be sure to get the cable mount for the side of the intake (expensive but makes it work properly).

You'll have to cut to fit and find a way to attach it to your pedal assembly, but it comes with some bits that work for most situations.
