Got any more detailed info? I'd like to know... my buddy has a Mazda 3. This sounds like a good free mod.

Pretty Cheap Mod.
can get a 6GA Wire with loop terminals on the ends.
Throtle body is usualy bolted by four bolts with butterfly controler.
See pic

The other end, Well you guess it. Connect directly to battery terminal. NOT TO THE BLOCK GROUND
This cheap mod gets used a lot on Drag Racing. Ebay also is carring some knock offs grounding kits that work pretty well. I know, I got one....

Also helps on better response by letting the right amount of air in when ECU tells it to with out any hessitation, Less deposits in your cilinders from unburned fuel, smother shifting. For you dragsters, better response period. Specialy on the shifting.
