At least that's how I understand it.

The 4th gens had a cable-driven throttle body. Cable drive RULES. Electronic throttle bodies retard the response on purpose to keep the power "in check." That's probably why you felt like the power was instantaneous in the '99. It WAS. It had nothing stopping it except the traction control system, which like you said, was OFF. In the 5th Gen, you'll never get that because the connection isn't mechanical. I HATE these electronic TB's. I think a mechanically driven throttle body would change all your complaints. But as a result, the car would be "harder" to drive.
This is probably a dumb question but is their anyway to get this to work on a 5th gen it says that it fits the stock ls3 manifold, but is their anyway to get it to work?
