I just bought the Blitz throttle control today. Some dude was selling it for $210 shipped on ebay for brand new. Luckily it was the model# 10405. Can't wait Btw, any of you guys got any installation pix? Or are the instructions pretty clear and self-explanatory?

It's really easy and the instructions are self-explanatory. It took 10 minutes to install.

Default stumble on acceleration

I have an '02 that was truly a "dog" off the line when I acquired back in August '09...and almost gave up and bought another Miata...HOWEVER, cleaned and checked the accelerator pedal linkage, added an IMJEN cold air intake, unplugged the battery for 20 minutes, drove it VERY hard for 30 miles, cleaned the throttle body and blade...and now, it has excellent acceleration off the line. I was ready to give up...but now it is GREAT. Bob

Got my Blitz TC today and installed it. And I must say like many of you who has this unit, it's very impressive of what it does. I set mine at SP3 with the factory throttle control set at "power" and oh boy does it give it a great kick and absolutely no dead-spot acceleration. I suggest others to get this unit as well. Great investment for maximizing on performance for sure!
