Default Skunk 2 Throttle Body Question

I have a skunk 2 TB on my car and my pedal sticks kinda bad b4 any throttle response, is this common and is there a way to fix it?

makes me feel like a ricer having to actually push the pedal to get some throttle response and reeving to 3-4k rpms to actually get going in first gear, not to mention having to slip the clutch every time i take off

one thing you might be able to check is to see if there is any minor crimps in the throtle cable that could be holding you up. also you might be able to lube up piece on the pedal that hold the throtle cable. good luck

Ive actually heard most aftermarket TBs ( in paticular the skunk2) have the sticking problem. I have never owned one, so I cannot speak from firsthand. but here is a link I came across a few days ago so I know its not just internet rumors.
