Default Looking for easy throttle response nick nacks..

My gas pedal is feeling a bit splashy. I'd like to know if I can tighten up the slack in my throttle response. Any tips with the exception of tightening the throttle cable itself (already did that)?

Sounds silly, but what intake are you running? The reason I ask is because IMO throttle response with my AEM sucks the fat one.

the thing that holds the throttle cable on the Intake manifold, it has springs, cable guides. If I got a pic of it I'll try to post it.

Yes you can easily tighten up the throttle cable. Not TOO tight though.

have you tried:
spark plugs
cap & rotor
valve adjustment
clean air filter
change oil
?

(why do I feel like I'm repeating myself lately?)

oh yeah, getting rid of power steering helps ALOT as well...
