Title: Is there any way of getting more throttle travel?
Post by: Fredrikkk on April 11, 2011, 06:02:25 am

I remember reading on the "Make your NA a faster car" thread that it's possible to replicate the gov mod by moving the max throttle stop. I have removed the plastic thing under the gas pedal and the screw on the pump but is there any way of getting more throttle?

I would put the pedal plastic thing back. I have heard that the arm on the pump likes to break off if you don't have it in place. Read the 2010 Gov Mod edition and Make your 1.6NA a faster car...again. The gov mod is one of 8voffury creation.

Libby has the link to move the shaft on the arm which helps as well, but is a different mod. I think it is called how to blow smoke at WOT or has that in the title.

I guess I'll have to open the pump then  ::) I wound the starwheel down about 15 clicks and that helped a lot. Now I have a black cloud-like haze off boost and completely clear on boost!
