Tomorrow it will be done.

i just fixed mine. took me literally 10 min to take off the old piece and put on a new one. i used 3 tip-ties, one on each end and one in the middle to keep the rubber from flexing.
i did a wot run yesterday on my way to work and it might just be a mental, but i felt like the car opened up more and pulled a little harder.

I believe I might try this today!
I felt like mine had better response too. Pull the seat and undo the throttle cable under the hood and it is vastly easier.
Feels alot better just did this myself, a must do imo.
Just modded and took a drive! I like the pedal placement a lot better, but there's no power or better throttle response in my particular case.
Pull the seat? Took less than 5 mins for me to install w/o pulling the seat or cable.
This sounds too good not to try. I'm just not looking forward to cramming myself under there.
as stated above, if you are a big guy (like me), just four nuts and a couple plugs, and the drivers seat comes out...and gives LOTS of room to get under the dash...
Just did mine tonight with rubber hose and three zip ties... What a difference. I just had a friend hold the cable under the hood with a pair of pliers to keep it from moving on me. We'll see how it works out tomorrow but it feels alot better
Still yet to do this...I can't find that ****ing hose anywhere. Home Depot was a no go, or their help just sucked.
I did it last night but have yet to test it due to the weather.
Just find any type of hose or similar piece sitting around the garage. I used an old piece of hard brake line that I had sitting around, 2 minutes with a dremel and I was done. I put the brake line on didn't even waste time with a clamp, I used a ziptie and electrical tape to cover and called it a day.

I found some hose that seemed like it would work, but they just don't seem rigid enough to take my foot at WOT.

Any emissions hose at Autozone, pep-boys or Kragen will do.
They have a hose section in the store with hoses wrapped in a roll that you can cut out what you need with the supplied shears.
They sell them at $1.00/foot...and you only need 1-1.5 inch.

mine only took 1/2 inch. with 1 inch it made the car idle at 4k
I agree, probably 99% will not change. 1% might have some excess play that would see maybe some benefit. You don't need much slack for the tb to open a bit. I would think the real benefit is not bumping the brake pedal. Just an opinion...
