Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] My rev2 rebuild log.

everything is pretty much back in the 2, hit one small stumbling block, waiting for a replacement throttle cable to turn up. Current one does not meet my throttle linkage.

Plan is get this fitted on Saturday. then the car will be ready for its MOT.

[Mk2] [Turbo] Need a longer throttle cable.

Good afternoon all,

My builds ready but my throttle cable is not long enough to reach my racerX centre feed inlet manifold.

Looks like its going to come up short by about 7-15cm's. I have a standard gen2 cable, Is the gen3 cable longer?
