right here...

that's it, but when i went to do it, it looked like there were two throttle cables

. well, they looked very similar anyway, and since they're both REALLY close to the throttle body, i wasn't sure which one it was

. ok, so i'm not good with cars

sue me.

so if anyone can clarify, cool beans

Before the bashing begins. Yes, Please search. YOu will find your little 1.7L engine won't make much power from bolt ons. We have discussed all of this before. Turbo or nitrous are pretty much the cheapest ways to get power.
