Default Throttle linkage

To whomever:

I spoke to Eric Stoddard,Designer of the Crossfire (Very Cool Guy). It was like talking to a real celeb!!

Aside from talking about everything I could think of , he mentioned that there is an item in the market that would shorten the throttle linkage and increase acceleration from a stop significantly. Anyone know of this?
We spoke about the Concept car with the vertical lights and why it did not become the production version. He has a 2004 Coupe and remarked that it was his favorite of all the cars he has designed.

I would like to have a Town Meeting with him hosting. Very ingenious Designer.

It is throttle by wire, so its certainly not a linkage.

Search Sprint Booster and see what you get. Many opinions on them, I have an adjustable one and love it
