Getting Better Throttle Response?

[xplode]

Well on my 5th gen i want to get better throttle response maybe.. i was wondering how to tighten the throttle cable a bit, i dont want to make it too tight that it will snap, and i want to make sure that doing this wont in any way cause damage to the car.. i know its not a 4th gen question but it seems like a basic same idea as the 4th gen.. i might be wrong.

easy..
all honda cars and mostly any car
has two adjustable nuts
to tighten the cable
there above the intake manifold near the tb.. i think on a 5th gen.
on the 4th gen its just two nuts to adjust u loosen one and tighten the other at the same time

o.. good shit.. so will this just help me get to full throttle faster? will i see accel increase? or is it not even worth it. some peeps are like Dude i gained HP which isnt true at all.. just maybe less time to reach WOT. am i correct?

[WiKKeDV16]

what it actually does is get rid of that granny gap .. so ud be at WOT sooner than u would normally.. which helps some regardless

Throttle rotor, HUGE difference in throttle response from about 1/8 throttle to WOT!!!

Don't overtighten your throttle cable. Then the throttle will "stick."

Smaller crankshaft pulley, underdrive accessory pulleys, or both. I'm running without P/S or A/C, and this made a huge diff in throttle response... They're still on the car, just the belts aren't hooked up.

Weapon R Throttle rotor, will get you to WOT 30-50% faster.

knowing xplode he wants something "Free"
lol
so yeh
no one said to overtighten the cable either just tighten it so that there is no slack
and the throttle rotor works great know a few peeps around here with it

i didnt say i wanted it free rofl im the first to spend money. how do i install the rotor?

[HondaFan81]

xplode: you look into the delta regrind idea?

[blazen_accord]

Yep, My self and many other have it, it great for WOT. Very easy to install, remove the nut holding the old rotor, slide the throttle cable off, and place the new rotor over the old one and put the throttle cable back on the new rotor. and tighten down the nut.
There is limited space to work, so be careful, and try not to drop the nut

Good luck,

i tried to adjust the two bolts before on the throttle cable and

it worked good but then my cars started ideling very wierd. it would pulisate up and down so i loosen it back up and it was all good. can someone tell me what i did wrong? it wasnt even that tight, it had like a 1/4 of a inch play!

i was gonna do the delta regrind, but doesnt changing the camshaft have you remove the rods and all that bs? cus i dunno hwo and i cannot be without a camshaft.. otherwise dad will know that i changed it.

xplode: if you're really interested in something, you'll research it & figure it out....so go do that & you'll see what's up....cuz right now it don't seem like you know what you really have to do...it's not all that bad

[xplode]

i dont have any idea what to do.. none hehe.
