Default FAST 78mm TB cable placement andadjustment

i had my friends TB off to make a WOT switch bracket for his nitrous, I forgot which of the 2 holes it was on the TB. I have it on the furthest hole. I adjusted the cable to be sure that the throttle cable is the correct length.

I am going to place it back in the "shorter" slot and adjust the cable back. the thing was the cable was never set to 100% WOT to begin with.

For those that have done it did you use the top slot? the car idles at about 2000 rpm and then dlowly comes back down. when i am on the highway with the car it is like it has cruise control on.

tia!

On the TB 98-00 car use ther upper hole (small cam TB like on the TB's)
01-04 is the lower hole (larger cam TBs)


also the non CC/TCS thottal cable last numbers is 59 for the 98-00 cable, and 60 for the 01-02 cable.

thank you! i set it up on the lower hole, car is an 02 SS. i readjusted the throttle cable and RESET the TPS, that might have been the culprit! either way it seems to be ok for now!

now i need to figure out where the wire for the msd shift light is from the PCM.
