Steering Wheel and Accelerator Question

Hey is it possible to make the accelerator not as loose...like make it more sensitive...on my dads car i have to basically pull down the accelerator a decent amount before itll start accelerating...also with the steerin wheel can i make that more tight aswell..?

Re: Steering Wheel and Accelerator Question

with the steering you can get different ratios but that involves modifying the steering box and such and that's probably more than you would want to do just for some tightness. another thing you could do is remove the power steering, it'll make the car more difficult to steer and you might pick up some horses (not anything noticeable, maybe 1 or 2). as for the accelerator, i don't know, maybe installing an aftermarket intake system, including throttle body, and that might make the car more responsive, or you might try to shorten the throttle cable, idon't suggest this unless you find out from someone that it's safe, i've never tried this or heard of anyone doing this so don't try it unless someone intelligent tells you it's safe (by intelligent i don't mean some random guy saying "yeah t's safe go do it", get someone like curtis on here to tell you then try it)
