Default Throttle body spacer OBX installation

iv looked through the forum and seen many people saying it only takes 30 or so minutes to install this..

I also know that some people say its a waste of money blah blah blah... maybe it is maybe it isnt i dont care about that..

What I need to know is how to install it .. Iv got the OBX version on a 99 Honda Accord 4 cy.

I thought it was going to be simple when i first looked at it .. but now that im ready to install it im wondering about the throttle lines and how do I keep them there.. b/c its attached to the throttle body and if I install the spacer the lines wont reach.

I need installation instruction ... Iv looked all over the net and cant seem to find anything that has any sort of details ..

remember I am a newb and i would really like good answers not people telling me its a waste of money and dosnt do anything for my car..ect...

Thanks in advance!

I would think you should be able to loosen the throttle cable. You know, where there are two nuts sandwitching the mount on the intake mani. And move them back however far you need to. Sorry, but I still think it's a ricer mod.

You are supposed to loosen the throttle cable.

I believe it asks for 1/8" deflection at closed throttle if I'm not mistaken.
