Default MPFI swap question - Throttle Cable.

I've searched and had no luck in finding it, if someone finds a thread already made, I'll have this one deleted. Basically all I want to know is if I can use my stock DPFI throttle cable and not have to source an Si one. Or if I can just use a throttle cable from a 92-95 Civic with MPFI? If I can't find either, looks like I'm effed.

All insight appreciated

Will I have to do any "rigging" lol. I'm just going to take it over to SpeedFactory and have them do it, because I do not trust my self with tall that wiring that is needed to do the swap. I just wanna source all the parts before I take it over there.

And I know you did your MPFI swap, but are you using your DPFI cable

Edit: Holy ninja edit Sausage, I just don't like how long the DPFI cable looks and how it has to be wrapped around. Are you getting any binding on it at all and does it let your car go WOT without a problem?

I guess I'll be using my stock throttle cable until I can source an Si one. Thanks Chorizo!

i'm using a throttle cable from a 92-95 civic... works good. just make sure you get the propper one for your pedals. auto trans cables and manual trans cables have different ends on the pedal end
