Right, more of a stop than a pivot.
But the lever it stops, changes the pivot point of the lever the accelerator hooks to.

 The pin is replaced by a moveable stop on a TD pump.

That's what I always thought too......

I don't have an LDA or the pin, even turned all the way in it wasn't that black. The other day I was getting stuck and tried 2nd gear floored, it bogged real bad (I have really good tires :-\) and when I looked in the side mirror I couldn't see anything but blackness. I had a slight tailwind so it was blowing past me for a couple minutes. During that the egt's where actually dropping.

All that to say it seems easier to overfuel at low rpm than at high revs.
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.

i cant over fuel over 2k prms. unless i crank my pump up to "maximum blackness"

its kinda funny driving around in the snow tho.. open downpipe.. lugging around. blip the throttle for a second and leave soot trails on the snow.. lol. downpipe comes off the turbo, and just directs the exhaust downwards. lugging it in 4th gear it will make a pretty decent streak.

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
