I'm local and very interested in the swap, will there be any hope for those of use that want a cable throttle? I fucking hate DBW and don't use TC anyway, although I would like to keep cruise.

I'm already running the A7's at 28 PSI.

As measured with a tape, the rear is using the full 9 3/4" that's there, the fronts are using 6 1/4". That's alot of time and grip being lost.
