Throttle Pulley anyone?

So, i've been looking for a throttle pulley for a while now, cant seem to locate one. Not looking for a OEM one, looking for aftermarket w/ lighter weight for better throttle response, i've been looking all over forums and cannot find anything. also checked various dsm parts vendors and cant find. Any one know where i can get one at?

Re: Throttle Pulley anyone?

a lighter throttle body? how does that help? wouldn't you just want one that is bored out for more air flow? or are you looking to do a weight reduction to the car? i've never heard of a lighter throttle body for quicker responce, you want more responce get a lightweight flywheel... but you also lose torque with the LW flywheel

EDIT: i think, correct me if i'm wrong.

You got me all wrong man, I'm talking about the pulley <b>on</b> the trottle body, the little circular disk thing that has the throttle cable on it. You know the little thing u pull on when you are reving your engine from under the hood By having that lighter you get better throttle response.

Look at it, its like a 4 ounce peice of steel. Belive me dude, if by some odd chance you find one, it wont do you much good. Your money is way better spent on other things.
