I like the mod
Thanks for the great write-up on the this mod. I did it today and I noticed a definite increase in throttle response. I will head to the track in about a week and see if there are any improvements. Seems like a great alternative to paying $300 on an aftermarket part with similar design.

Hi maximum -
If I were starting over, I would have done the flip-tie and saved a ton of cash.
I like the idea of the mod, and the panel you have to cut is readily replaceable if you decide to go another route.
