Default jumpy throttle

ive got a 94 integra ls with a turbonetics t3/t4 turbo and drag 3 manifold and safc hac. im having a problem with the throttle. when im trying to go at the same speed with out decelerating or accelerating, the car jerks like the throttle response it to touchy almost. i have plenty of fuel across the board. any thoughts?? the only thing i can think of is the throttle cable is to tight.?

how did you fix it? im using rc 440 injectors and a walboro fuel pump and the safc hac to control the fuel curve. im running 12 psi and was dyno turned and put down 284 hp. but the jumpyness is really shitty. need some more advice on how to get rid of it.

to adjust the TPS, take off the throttle body, slot the screws that hold down the TPS and adjust with a voltmeter.

what i did was, i stuck a sewing needle through the middle wire of the TPS harness and measured the voltage with a multi-meter. 0.5v Closed throttle and 4.5v+ WOT.

Sewing needle, good idea I actually removed the clip cover itself, stuck the wires on the TPS and then measured them that way. Your way's so much better!
