is that the guy who asked if you were her....and you said "ill tell my wife the compliment" or somethin??...that was actually kinda funny...he fell right into the trap...i dont think the admins/mods would like that much...maybe change your name to "that is my wife in my avatar ass holes"...just a thought lol
I can't see how doin this would make more power. I mean you're not really changing anything except being able to achieve WOT, and moving your pedal up.

you don't see how that would help to make more power? I'm not so sure that I didn't get WOT before, but I'm certain now. having the gas pedal 1.5 inches below the brake sucks.
What I meant was... and if I'm wrong, then explain it to me, but you are still producing the same horsepower at the same rpms yes? or no? I don't know. I'm not a mechanic, but I did this one the other day... I love it... it's great, I had a little scare, thought I might have to buy a new throttle cable, but it worked out in the end. Oh yeah... and get this... there is some dumba$$ on here who thinks I'm actually the girl in my avatar... I'm wondering if I should fuc* with him for a bit. What do you guys think?
~Alf
Yes but the more you open the throttle the faster you use the power you have. Like our sixers go 0-60 in 7.5sec, but if you barely push the throttle 0-60 would take about a minute

You are getting the same power from teh same RPMs at the same throttle position. it is just a matter of getting to that position sooner by eliminating the slack in the cable. The only performance differance this mod will make is if you do not achieve WOT before the mod. It will only feel like a difference because you have muscle memory that tells you that you are getting power at a different gas pedal position.
Ahhh.... now I get it... that's kinda what I thought, but I guess I was a little off... Thanks for the info...
Laserred... no there is this new guy, who pm'd me... kinda humorous tho... I should probably let him know that he's hitting on a guy... but it's so damn funny...

No point in whooping his ass, it doesn't bother me, I mean, I know she's hot. It's more funny than anything. I'm used to guys hitting on her, but she's a good girl, I keep tabs on her.

hehe...ditto for me...so is anyone going to tell us the ill-effects of this mod or what?...my leg is really getting tired from moving back and forth from gas to brake....i really would like them to be the same height....not too worried about the WOT.....i just want them the same height so i dont have to strain my leg

Sorry, I havn't been around to awnser questions (I was in the Dominican ) but it looks like you guys have made some good points.
I don't know quite what to say about the possible ill effects of this mod, what I can come up with is this....
If you are worried about the end cap comming off you may want to get a spacer that clamps onto the cable as opposed to something that rests against the cap. As far as the health of the cable goes, just remember, everything in moderation. If you are crazy with your car and stomp it hard to the floor where ever you go, the cable is going to be the least of your worries. Thats not to say that you cant ever, just treat you Stang with respect and She'll look after you.

Sorry for taking so long, forgot this was here.
Anyway, I' really not sure, give your pedals a look and see if your gas pedal hangs lower than your brake pedal. Then also check if I can be lifted at all. Now that being said I havn't heard of this on Sn95s other than the "NewEdge" so please post you findings here.

I did this today on my 00gt and it feels a lot better for them being at the same height. I wear boots during most of the time and sometimes if I'm not careful it can get caught behind the brake so now it's all good.
I got 1/4" tubing at home depot in the plumbing section (took me the longest to find this than actually doing the mod). It's basically clear tubing, with some braiding in it, really stiff, works well.
When I put it on and went for a ride to get used to it I hit the gas too hard and the tubing came off, but this was probably because I only had 1 zip tie on at first. Once I corrected that problem it ran beautifully. Even if it doesn't change performance, it's more comfortable and safer for me this way.
