In many cars, the pedals have some range of adjustment, making the process easier. One thing to remember, as you adjust the gas pedal, make sure that there is a mechanical stop for the pedal. If you rely on the stops in the injection system to stop the motion, you will probably bend or break something as you try to squeeze a couple more horsepower out of the pedal. Also, make sure the linkage is fully open when the pedal hits your mechanical stop.
Do I have to adjust the gas pedal?? I wanted to use some kind of chims (what material?) to raise the gas pedal like described here: http://www.turnfast.com/tech_driving...g_pedals.lasso
